STATE OF NEW YORK, ET AL., Plaintiffs, v. UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF LABOR, ET AL., Defendants.
ORDER
SIDNEY H. STEIN, U.S. DISTRICT JUDGE
The parties appeared for a teleconference today during which the Court dismissed this case as moot. In light of the Rescission of Implementing Legal Requirements Regarding the Equal Opportunity Clause's Religious Exemption Rule, 88 Fed.Reg. 12,842 (Mar. 1, 2023), effective March 31, 2023, there is no longer an active case or controversy in this matter and the Court must dismiss it for lack of subject matter jurisdiction. See New York v. Raimondo, No. 19-CV-09380-MKV, 2021 WL 1339397 (S.D.N.Y. Apr. 9,2021); Orthodox Jewish Coal, of Chestnut Ridge v. Vill. of Chestnut Ridge, No. 19-CV-443-KMK, 2021 WL 1226930 (S.D.N.Y. Mar. 31, 2021); Fox v. Bd. of Trustees of State Univ, of New York, 42 F.3d 135,139-40 (2d Cir. 1994).
Accordingly, this matter is dismissed for lack of subject matter jurisdiction.
SO ORDERED.
