Opinion
DISTRICT COURT CASE NO. CIV-F-06-00675 AWI, BANKRUPTCY COURT CASE NO. 05-10002-A7.
August 27, 2007
This case comes before this Court on appeal from the bankruptcy court's denial of pro se appellants Joe and Connie Flores' ("Appellants" or the "Floreses") motion for relief from the automatic stay to bring a motion to add judgment debtors in the case Joe Flores, et al. v. DDJ, Inc., et al., case no. CIV-F-99-5878. While the Floreses appeal was under submission in this Court, it appears that the bankruptcy court granted a separate motion brought by the Floreses for relief from the automatic stay on August 9, 2007. The relief sought by the Floreses in that motion, relief from the automatic stay to bring a motion to add judgment debtors in case no. CIV-F-99-5878, is the same relief sought by the Floreses on appeal. Accordingly, because the bankruptcy court granted the Floreses the relief they sought on appeal, the Floreses appeal in this Court is moot. This Court need not decide the issues raised by the parties briefs, particularly whether the claims asserted by the Floreses are property of the bankruptcy estate.
For the reasons stated in the above Memorandum Opinion, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Appellants Joe and Connie Flores' appeal from the bankruptcy court's denial of their motion for relief from the automatic stay is DENIED as moot.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
