OPINION

KETHLEDGE, Circuit Judge.

In October 2011, Timothy Sims was set to go to trial on charges that he possessed child pornography in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 2252(a)(4)(B) and (b)(2), and that he attempted to produce child pornography in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 2251(a) and (e). Four days before trial, however, Sims pled guilty to the possession charges. The district court then entered an order excluding evidence of Sims’s possession of child pornography from his attempted-production trial. The government brought this interlocutory appeal. We vacate and remand.
