PER CURIAM:

       Jamie Earl Smith appeals the district court’s order denying

his     18    U.S.C.       § 3582(c)(2)          (2012)       motion    for     a     sentence

reduction.          While Smith’s appeal was pending, he completed his

term    of    imprisonment          and    was    released      from    prison.         “Given

[appellant’s] release from prison, there is no wrong to remedy

and    an     appeal       should    be    dismissed       when,       by    virtue    of   an

intervening event, a court of appeals cannot grant any effectual

relief whatever in favor of the appellant.”                             United States v.

Hardy,       545    F.3d     280,    285     (4th      Cir.    2008)        (alteration     and

internal quotation marks omitted); United States v. Booker, 645

F.3d 328 (5th Cir. 2011) (per curiam) (explaining that “[a]ny

termination of supervised release must be sought by a motion

under 18 U.S.C. § 3583(e)(1)”).                        Accordingly, we dismiss this

appeal as moot.              We dispense with oral argument because the

facts    and       legal    contentions       are      adequately      presented       in   the

materials      before       this     court       and   argument    would       not    aid   the

decisional process.

                                                                                     DISMISSED
