Larry Reynolds was charged in an order to show cause with criminal contempt of court, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 401, which arose from his conduct in bankruptcy proceedings involving a company that he owned and managed. He now appeals the district courts order of detention pending trial. See 18 U.S.C. § 3142.
This court has recently become aware that Reynolds pled guilty to the contempt charge on February 10, 2021. He was then sentenced to six months’ imprisonment on March 24, 2021. Because Reynolds’ pending appeal only seeks review of his pretrial detention, his subsequent conviction and sentencing has rendered this appeal moot as there is no longer any relief that this court can grant. United States v. Ramirez, 145 F.3d 345, 356 (5th Cir. 1998); United States v. OShaughnessy, 772 F.2d 112, 113 (5th Cir. 1985). Accordingly, Reynolds’ appeal is DISMISSED as MOOT.
APPEAL DISMISSED.
