ORDER
WEINSHIENK, Senior District Judge.
On January 23, 2004, we entered a Memorandum Opinion and Order denying the Colorado General Assembly and Governor Owens' Motion to File Amended Counterclaims and staying these proceedings until the Colorado Supreme Court's ruling in People ex rel. Salazar v. Davidson, 79 P.3d 1221 (Colo.2003) became final. In a Memorandum Opinion and Order we also stated that "[i]f the Salazar opinion becomes final in its current version, we will then dismiss the federal claims on the basis of issue preclusion and we will dismiss the pendant state claims as moot." Keller v. Davidson, 299 F.Supp.2d 1171, 1183 (D.Colo.2004).
The General Assembly's petition for certiorari from the United States Supreme Court was denied on June 7, 2004, and the 25-day period in which to file a petition for rehearing from the Supreme Court has now lapsed. See Sup.Ct. R. 44(2). The Colorado court's decision in Salazar v. Davidson is therefore now final. Accordingly, we hereby
GRANT Davidson's motion for substitution of counsel, DISMISS the Defendants' counterclaims as barred by issue preclusion, and DISMISS Plaintiffs' claims, and DENY any outstanding motions in this case, as moot.
