Pg: 2 of 2

PER CURIAM:
Curtis Richardson seeks to appeal the district court’s order
finding

pretrial

detention

appropriate.

However,

because

Richardson subsequently entered a plea of guilty in the district
court, we conclude that his appeal is moot, see Murphy v. Hunt,
455 U.S. 478, 481-82 (1982), and we dismiss the appeal on that
basis.

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
