                 ON REMAND FROM
      THE SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES

Before King, Elrod, and Engelhardt, Circuit Judges.
Per Curiam:
       In an opinion issued on June 17, 2021, the Supreme Court of the
United States vacated this court’s judgment and remanded the case to us
with instructions to dismiss. California v. Texas, 141 S. Ct. 2104, 2120 (2021).
In accordance with that decision, we now VACATE the judgment of the
district court in its entirety and REMAND the case to the district court with
instructions to dismiss the case. The Clerk is directed to issue the mandate
forthwith.
