Opinion

MEMORANDUM

*

The Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) appeals an order granting a preliminary injunction that directed the INS’s Acting Director of the Office of Juvenile Affairs (the Attorney General’s designee) to consent to jurisdiction of a state court juvenile dependency proceeding for Pedro Mauricio Chanax-Saquic as part of the process he had begun for seeking special immigrant juvenile status pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1101(a)(27)(J). No stay was sought. The INS consented, the state court held a dependency hearing, and a dependency order was issued. In these circumstances, the appeal is moot. Accordingly, it is dismissed.

DISMISSED.
