CHRISTOPHER B. EPPS; MALCOM MCMILLIAN; KAY WASHINGTON;
ROBERT STERLIN,
Defendants-Appellees
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Northern District of Mississippi
USDC No. 4:14-CV-13
Before JOLLY, DENNIS, and PRADO, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM: *
On limited remand from this court, the district court granted Mondric
Bradley’s motion under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 59(e) and reopened
Bradley’s 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action, which it had dismissed. Because the
judgment of dismissal from which Bradley filed his notice of appeal is no longer
in effect, the appeal does not present a live controversy and is moot. See Rocky
v. King, 900 F.2d 864, 867 (5th Cir. 1990). Accordingly, the appeal is
* Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH
CIR. R. 47.5.4.

DENIED.
