UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
Plaintiff-Appellee
v.
ERIC SYKES HAMPTON,
Defendant-Appellant

Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Southern District of Texas
USDC No. 4:96-CR-187-1

Before REAVLEY, SMITH, and PRADO, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Eric Sykes Hampton, formerly federal prisoner # 72874-079, appeals from
the district court’s decision denying his motion to modify his sentence under 18
U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2). While his appeal was pending, Hampton was released from
prison. Thus, his appeal is DISMISSED as moot. See United States v. Booker,
645 F.3d 328, 328 (5th Cir. 2011); United States v. Boston, 419 F. App’x 505, 506
(5th Cir. 2011).

Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
