v. No. 25-7097

BILLY RAY MASON, (E.D. Okla.)
Defendant - Appellant.

ORDER AND JUDGMENT *
_________________________________
Before MATHESON, BACHARACH, and PHILLIPS, Circuit Judges. **
_________________________________
This matter is before the court on Appellant Billy Ray Mason’s Unopposed
Motion to Remand, in which Appellant Mason requests to vacate the revocation
sentence imposed by the district court and to remand this matter for resentencing.
Appellee United States does not oppose the motion.
Upon consideration, Appellant’s motion to remand is granted as follows.
*
This order and judgment is not binding precedent, except under the doctrines
of law of the case, res judicata, and collateral estoppel. It may be cited, however, for
its persuasive value consistent with Fed. R. App. P. 32.1 and 10th Cir. R. 32.1.
**
Because this matter is being decided on an unopposed motion to remand for
resentencing, the panel has determined unanimously that oral argument would not
materially assist in the determination of this appeal. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(f); 10th
Cir. R. 34.1(G). The case is therefore submitted without oral argument.
Appellate Case: 25-7097 Document: 30 Date Filed: 05/19/2026 Page: 2
This matter is remanded to the district court with instructions to vacate the
revocation sentence and to conduct any and all proceedings necessary to resentence
Billy Ray Mason in accord with Appellant’s Unopposed Motion to Remand.
This appeal is dismissed. The mandate shall issue forthwith.
