     Andrew Ketterer, Attorney General, Andrew S. Hagler, Assistant

for appellee.

September 10, 1999

                                
  
            Per Curiam. Plaintiff-appellant Richard Bingaman
  appeals pro se from an order denying preliminary injunctive
  relief.  While this appeal was pending, the underlying case was
  dismissed.  Bingaman has not appealed from the dismissal. 
  Under the circumstances, the instant appeal is moot, and we
  dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction.  See Caribbean
  Tubular Corp. v. Fernandez Torrecillas (In re Caribbean Tubular
  Corp.), 813 F.2d 533, 534 (1st Cir. 1987) (per curiam).
            Dismissed.
