Catherine O'Hagan Wolfe, Clerk of Court

At a Stated Term of the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, held at the Thurgood Marshall United States Courthouse, 40 Foley Square, in the City of New York, on the 30 day of March, two thousand eighteen. Before: Amalya L. Kearse, Barrington D. Parker, Richard C. Wesley, Circuit Judges.

ORDER

By order dated March 5, 2018, the United States Supreme Court granted a petition for a writ of certiorari, vacated this Court's judgment, and remanded the case for further consideration in light of Jennings v. Rodriguez, No. 15-1204, 583 U.S. ___ (2018).

At the Court's direction, the parties have briefed the question whether Mr. Lora's cancellation of removal has rendered the case moot.

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the appeal is dismissed as moot. Once cancellation of removal was granted to Petitioner-Appellee Lora the case no longer presented an actual dispute between the parties, rendering the case moot. See Lewis v. Cont'l Bank Corp., 494 U.S. 472, 477-78 (1990); Catanzano v. Wing, 277 F.3d 99, 107 (2d Cir. 1999).

For the Court:

Catherine O'Hagan Wolfe,

Clerk of Court

Lora v. Shanahan
