    This document is an unpublished opinion from the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit dismissing Curtis Leon Taylor Sr.'s appeal as moot. Taylor had appealed the district court's denial of his request for a preliminary injunction directing prison officials to provide him with a hernia operation. The appeals court dismissed the case because Taylor was released from incarceration while the appeal was pending, and therefore could no longer receive the medical treatment he had requested in his motion for preliminary injunctive relief.

    Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.


    See Local Rule 36(c).

    PER CURIAM:
    Curtis Leon Taylor, Sr., appeals the district court's order
    denying him preliminary injunctive relief. We dismiss the appeal as
    moot. Taylor sought to have the district court direct the Defendants to provide him a hernia operation. While his appeal was pending, Taylor was released from incarceration. Because Taylor can no
    longer receive the relief he requested, we dismiss the appeal as
    moot. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal
    contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the
    court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

    DISMISSED
