Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit

1Opinion of the Court
WARDLAW, Circuit Judge:
Mario Tellez Verdin appeals the sentence imposed after he pleaded guilty to one count of importation of marijuana, in violation of 21 U.S.C. §§ 952 and 960. Because Verdin completed his term of incarceration and began his three-year period of supervised release one week before his appeal was argued, we must first decide whether, as the government urges, Ver-din’s appeal is moot. We hold that we have jurisdiction to entertain Verdin’s appeal because a favorable resolution of the sentencing error he asserts could reduce the period of his current term of supervised release…
