2Per curiam

Charlie Song appeals an order of the district court committing him to the Federal Bureau of Prisons (“BOP”) for a mental status and competency examination pursuant to 18 U.S.C. §§ 4241(b), 4242(a), and 4247(b), and an order denying reconsideration of the same. Because we lack adequate findings upon which to decide whether the district court’s commitment order is a proper exercise of its discretion, we vacate the commitment order and.remand for further proceedings.
