ORDER TERMINATING DEFENDANTS' MOTION TO DISMISS (ECF NO. 10) AS MOOT
MATTHEW F. LEITMAN, UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
In this action, Plaintiffs John and Antoneta Gjolaj initially sought to compel the Defendants to decide their pending immigration applications. (See Compl., ECF No. 1.) On May 15, 2024, Defendants moved to dismiss Plaintiffs' Complaint. (See Mot. to Dismiss, ECF No. 10.) Defendants argued that Plaintiffs' claims were moot because, following the filing of the Complaint, Plaintiffs' immigration applications had been denied. (See id.) Plaintiffs thereafter filed an Amended Complaint in which they claim that the denial of their applications was wrongful. (See Am. Compl., ECF No. 11.)
Based on the filing of Plaintiffs' Amended Complaint, Defendants' motion to dismiss is now moot. The Court therefore TERMINATES that motion without prejudice. Defendants shall answer or otherwise respond to the Amended Complaint by December 2, 2024. (See Stipulated Order, ECF No. 14.)
IT IS SO ORDERED.
I hereby certify that a copy of the foregoing document was served upon the parties and/or counsel of record on October 2, 2024, by electronic means and/or ordinary mail.
