1
We dismiss this appeal for want of appellate jurisdiction on the ground of mootness.   See, e.g., Oakville Dev.  Corp. v. FDIC, 986 F.2d 611, 613 (1st Cir. 1993).  This dismissal is without prejudice to appellant's continued prosecution of the underlying action, which remains pending in the district court.  We take no view of either (1) the appropriateness of the district court's denial of preliminary injunctive relief, or (2) the merits of the case.

2
Appeal dismissed.  No costs.
