Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Western District of Texas
USDC No. 4:10-CV-41
Before WIENER, ELROD, and GRAVES, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Petitioner-Appellant Jesus Alonso Jaquez-Munoz, formerly federal
prisoner # 47025-051, filed a 28 U.S.C. § 2241 petition asserting that he was
being denied access to various benefits and programs available to other federal
prisoners. He requested a one-year reduction in his sentence for completing the
Bureau of Prisons drug rehabilitation program and transfer to a facility that

would afford him access to the same benefits and programs as other federal
prisoners. Jaquez-Munoz now appeals the district court’s denial of his motion.
We are required to examine our jurisdiction sua sponte, if necessary.
Mosley v. Cozby, 813 F.2d 659, 660 (5th Cir. 1987). As Jaquez-Munoz has been
released from custody and removed from the United States, we can no longer
grant him the relief he seeks so his appeal is moot. See United States v.
Rosenbaum-Alanis, 483 F.3d 381, 381-82 (5th Cir. 2007). His appeal is therefore
DISMISSED for lack of jurisdiction.
