UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

                                                  Plaintiff-Appellee

v.

WALTER LEONARDO,

                                                  Defendant-Appellant

                   Appeal from the United States District Court
                        for the Western District of Texas
                            USDC No. 2:09-CR-1079-1

Before DAVIS, BENAVIDES, and PRADO, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
       Walter Leonardo pleaded guilty to illegally reentering the United States
after deportation.        The district court sentenced him to 46 months of
imprisonment and three years of supervised release. Leonardo has appealed,
contending that the district court did not adequately explain its reasons for
imposing supervised release and that the imposition of a term of supervised
release does not advance the goals of 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a).

       *
         Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.
R. 47.5.4.
    Case: 12-50662   Document: 00512375498     Page: 2   Date Filed: 09/16/2013

                                No. 12-50662

      Because Leonardo has been released from prison and deported to
Guatemala, however, his appeal is moot, see United States v. Rosenbaum-Alanis,
483 F.3d 381, 383 (5th Cir. 2007), and accordingly is DISMISSED.
