Opinion
MEMORANDUM **
Jose Cain Partida-Vargas appeals from the district court’s order denying his 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) motion for reduction of his custodial sentence. We dismiss.
Partida-Vargas contends that the district court erred in denying his motion for a sentence reduction. Because Partida-Vargas has finished serving his “term of imprisonment,” he is no longer eligible for relief under section 3582(c)(2). See 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) (allowing the district court to reduce the “term of imprisonment” when the defendant was sentenced based upon a sentencing range which has been subsequently lowered). Accordingly, we dismiss this appeal-as moot. See United States v. Strong, 489 F.3d 1055, 1059 (9th Cir.2007).
DISMISSED.
This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
