v.

BENJAMIN EMIGDIO JIMENEZ,

                                                 Defendant-Appellant

                   Appeal from the United States District Court
                        for the Northern District of Texas
                             USDC No. 3:16-CR-222-1

Before DAVIS, CLEMENT, and COSTA, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM: *
       Benjamin Emigdio Jimenez pleaded guilty to possession of a firearm by
a felon and was sentenced to 44 months of imprisonment and three years of
supervised release. On appeal, he argues that the district court misapplied
U.S.S.G. § 5G1.3 when it ordered his federal sentence to run consecutively to
a not-yet-imposed sentence in a then-pending state prosecution for possession
of marijuana.       Counsel for Jimenez has since provided documentation

       * 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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH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: 17-10090   Document: 00514198126    Page: 2   Date Filed: 10/17/2017

                               No. 17-10090

establishing that the pending marijuana charge has been dismissed on the
State’s motion. Because Jimenez’s challenge has been rendered moot, the
appeal is DISMISSED. See Church of Scientology of Cal. v. United States, 506
U.S. 9, 12 (1992).
