Francisco Javier Sanchez-Villarreal appeals the district court’s denial of his 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) motion to reduce his sentence of 155 months of imprisonment, imposed following his conviction of possession with intent to distribute five kilograms or more of cocaine. He sought a sentence reduction based on Johnson v. United States, — U.S. -, 135 S.Ct. 2551, 192 L.Ed.2d 569 (2015), and Welch v. United States, — U.S. -, 136 S.Ct. 1257, 194 L.Ed.2d 387 (2016). On May 23, 2017, this court issued its opinion in Sanchez-Villarreal’s direct appeal of the district court’s judgment of conviction and sentence. United States v. Sanchez-Villarreal, 857 F.3d 714 (5th Cir. 2017). This court vacated Sanchez-Villarreal’s 155-month sentence and remanded the matter for resentencing. Id. at 722-23.

Because the § 3582(c)(2) motion related solely to the 155-month sentence imposed pursuant to the district court’s judgment of October 19, 2016 (which has now been vacated), Sanchez-Villarreal’s appeal must be DISMISSED as moot. Sanchez-Villarreal’s motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis on appeal and his motion for the appointment of counsel are DENIED as unnecessary.
