Text: 21 1. Popowski and Commerce Group's Motions for TRO, Preliminary Injunction, and the Addition of Parrott as a Party Defendant 22 The district court's denial of Popowski and the Commerce Group's motions for a TRO and preliminary injunction and for the addition of Parrott's husband as a party defendant was based upon the court's perception that it lacked subject matter jurisdiction over the claims in this case. Because we have determined that the court does have subject matter jurisdiction, the underlying rationale for the denial no longer exists, and it cannot stand. We will not review the merits when the district court has not yet had the opportunity to do so. See, e.g., Callahan v. Campbell, 396 F.3d 1287, 1289 (11th Cir.2005) (per curiam). Accordingly, we vacate the denial of these motions and leave the district court to consider the merits of each on remand. 23 2. BCBS's Motions for Preliminary Injunction and Summary Judgment 24 Because BCBS failed to state a claim for appropriate equitable relief under § 1132(a)(3), it cannot, as a matter of law, be entitled to judgment in its favor. Therefore, the district court correctly denied BCBS's motions for preliminary injunction and summary judgment.
