Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Middle District of Florida
________________________
(March 18, 2019)
Before ED CARNES, Chief Judge, WILSON, and HULL, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:
Case: 18-15115 Date Filed: 03/18/2019 Page: 2 of 2
Sergio Perez-Salinas appeals the district court’s order of detention pending
trial. After he filed this appeal, however, he pleaded guilty to the only charge in
the indictment and was adjudicated guilty of it by the district court. He is now
being held pending sentencing.
Because release pending sentencing is governed by a different statute than
pretrial release, compare 18 U.S.C. § 3142, with id. § 3143(a), the Court ordered
the parties to file letter briefs discussing whether this appeal should be dismissed as
moot. Perez-Salinas and the government each filed a letter brief agreeing that this
appeal has been rendered moot. We agree with them. This appeal is DISMISSED
AS MOOT.
