Counsel

Becky S. Walker, Esq., David K. Willingham, Esq., USLA—Office of the U.S. Attorney Criminal Division, Los Angeles, CA, for Plaintiff-Appellee., Christopher Johns, Esq., Johns & Allyn A. Professional Corporation, San Rafael, CA, for Defendant-Appellant., Kam Ming Chin, Los Angeles, CA, pro se.

Opinion of the Court

MEMORANDUM **

This is an appeal from the sentence imposed upon revocation of supervised release. A review of the record indicates that the appeal is moot because the custodial term has ended and Appellant was not sentenced to a term of supervised release to follow his custodial sentence. See United States v. Palomba, 182 F.3d 1121, 1123 (9th Cir. 1999). We reject Appellant’s contention that his appeal is not moot because he demonstrated one of the “exceptional situations” sufficient to avoid application of the mootness doctrine. Spencer v. Kemna, 523 U.S. 1, 17, 118 S.Ct. 978, 140 L.Ed.2d 43 (1998).

APPEAL DISMISSED.
