                              USDC No. 4:10-CV-64


Before KING, CLEMENT, and HIGGINSON, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
       Mario Alberto Dovalina, former federal prisoner # 43113-180, appeals the
denial of his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 petition challenging his exclusion from
rehabilitation programs and halfway houses. As Dovalina has been released
from Bureau of Prisons custody, we grant Respondents’ motion to dismiss the
appeal as moot and dismiss the appeal as moot. See Calderon v. Moore, 518 U.S.




       *
         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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.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.
