PER CURIAM:
Kevin Herriott, a South Carolina inmate, appeals the district court’s order
accepting the magistrate judge’s recommendation and denying his motion for a
preliminary injunction. See 28 U.S.C. § 1292(a)(1) (2012) (providing that denial of
preliminary injunction is immediately appealable interlocutory order). “[A]s a general
rule, a prisoner’s transfer or release from a particular prison moots his claims for
injunctive and declaratory relief with respect to his incarceration there.” Rendelman v.
Rouse,
569 F.3d 182, 186 (4th Cir. 2009). Because Herriott no longer resides at the
correctional institution where the events underlying his motion occurred, we dismiss the
appeal as moot. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions
are adequately presented in the materials before this court and argument would not aid
the decisional process.
DISMISSED
