United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit ____________

United States Court of Appeals Fifth Circuit No. 24-40652

Summary Calendar FILED ____________ April 2, 2025 Lyle W. Cayce United States of America, Clerk Plaintiff—Appellee, versus

Myron Anthonie Brown,

Defendant—Appellant. ______________________________

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas USDC No. 2:20-CR-1278-1 ______________________________

Before Smith, Stewart, and Duncan, Circuit Judges.

Per Curiam: *

The Federal Public Defender appointed to represent Myron Brown has moved to withdraw and filed a brief per Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967). Brown has not filed a response.

During the pendency of the appeal, Brown completed the prison term imposed upon revocation of his supervised release, and he was released from Case: 24-40652 Document: 45-1 Page: 2 Date Filed: 04/02/2025

No. 24-40652 custody. Because Brown’s sentence did not include an additional term of supervised release, the instant appeal does not present a case or controversy, so this court lacks jurisdiction. See Spencer v. Kemna, 523 U.S. 1, 7–8, 12–14 (1998). Therefore, the appeal is DISMISSED as moot, and the motion to withdraw is DENIED as unnecessary.
