247 So. 3d 720 (Southern Reporter, Third Series)

Fla. Citizens Alliance, Inc. v. Sch. Bd. of Collier Cnty.

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

Dismissed as moot. See Lund v. Dep't of Health, 708 So.2d 645, 646 (Fla. 1st DCA 1998) ("The general rule in Florida is that a case on appeal becomes moot when a change in circumstances occurs before an appellate court's decision, thereby making it impossible for the court to provide effectual relief."); see also Freni v. Collier County, 573 So.2d 1054, 1054 (Fla. 2d DCA 1991) ("The appellants sought to enjoin a referendum scheduled to be held on the issue of whether the Board of County Commissioners ... should levy a tourist development tax .... [T]he trial court denied the appellants' motion for a temporary injunction [and t]his appeal ensued .... The referendum was held as scheduled ... and resulted in a favorable vote. Therefore, the issue of whether the court erred in denying the motion for temporary injunction is moot.").

Dismissed.
