United States Court of Appeals

FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA CIRCUIT

No. 15-5239 September Term, 2015

FILED ON: MAY 13, 2016

WASHINGTON ALLIANCE OF TECHNOLOGY WORKERS,

APPELLANT

v.

UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY,

APPELLEE

Appeal from the United States District Court

for the District of Columbia

(No. 1:14-cv-00529)

Before: KAVANAUGH, MILLETT, and WILKINS, Circuit Judges.

J U D G M E N T

This appeal was considered on the record from the United States District Court for the

District of Columbia and on the briefs and oral arguments of the parties. The Court has afforded

the issues full consideration and has determined that they do not warrant a published opinion. 

See D.C. Cir. R. 36(d). It is

ORDERED and ADJUDGED that the appeal be DISMISSED.

The challenges to the 2008 Rule raised by plaintiff on appeal – including the argument

that the 2008 Rule reopened the 1992 Rule – are moot because the 2008 Rule is no longer in

effect. We therefore dismiss the appeal and vacate the judgment of the District Court. See

United States v. Munsingwear, Inc., 340 U.S. 36, 39-40 (1950); Humane Society of the United

States v. Kempthorne, 527 F.3d 181, 184-88 (D.C. Cir. 2008).

Pursuant to D.C. Circuit Rule 36, this disposition will not be published. The Clerk is

directed to withhold issuance of the mandate herein until seven days after resolution of any

timely petition for rehearing or rehearing en banc. See Fed. R. App. P. 41(b); D.C. Cir. R. 41.

FOR THE COURT:
