Before: NOONAN and FISHER, Circuit Judges, and GRITZNER, Chief District
        Judge.***

      This case is ordered resubmitted on May 15, 2012.

      On May 2, 2012, in response to this Court’s order to show cause, Appellees

submitted a letter brief stating that upon issuance of the District Court’s permanent

injunction, this appeal would become moot. Appellees requested that this Court

dismiss the appeal upon issuance of the permanent injunction “without further

briefing or requests from the parties.”

       On May 11, 2012, in response to this Court’s order deferring submission of

this appeal, Appellees filed a notice informing the Court that a permanent

injunction was issued by the District Court on May 7, 2012. Appellants have not

responded to this Court’s order to show cause, Appellees’ letter brief or the notice.

      The Court construes Appellees’ notice, in conjunction with their earlier letter

brief, as a motion to dismiss this appeal as moot. The motion is GRANTED.

      Transmission of a copy of this order to the District Court shall constitute the

mandate of this Court.




        ***
         The Honorable James E. Gritzner, United States District Judge for the
Southern District of Iowa, sitting by designation.
