7 TEAM KENNEDY, Case No.2:24-CV-1027 JCM (MDC)

8 Plaintiff(s), ORDER 9 v.

10 FRANCISCO V. AGUILAR,

11 Defendant(s).

12 13 This action concerns the 2024 election. Robert F. Kennedy’s political organization, Team 14 Kennedy, filed a complaint seeking declaratory and injunctive relief to display Kennedy’s name 15 on the 2024 general election ballot. (See ECF No. 1). 16 On January 27, 2025, this court denied Somos PAC’s motion to intervene in this action. 17 (ECF No. 11). In that order, plaintiff was required to file a status update with the court by February 18 17, 2025, informing the court of why the case should not be dismissed as moot. Plaintiff has failed 19 to do so. 20 “[T]he doctrine of mootness can be described as ‘the doctrine of standing set in a time 21 frame: The requisite personal interest that must exist at the commencement of the litigation 22 (standing) must continue throughout its existence (mootness).’” Friends of the Earth, Inc. v. 23 Laidlaw Envtl. Servs. (TOC), Inc.,

(2000) (quoting Arizonans for Official 24 English v. Arizona,

, 68 n.22 (1997)). “A case that becomes moot at any point during 25 the proceedings is ‘no longer a ‘Case’ or ‘Controversy’ for purposes of Article III,’ and is outside 26 the jurisdiction of the federal courts.” United States v. Sanchez-Gomez,

, 1537 27 (2018) (quoting Already, LLC v. Nike, Inc.,

(2013)). 28 1 Plaintiff’s personal interest in this case is securing Robert F. Kennedy’s name on the 2 Nevada 2024 general election ballet. (ECF No. 1 at 5). With the 2024 general election having 3 occurred almost a year ago, and Mr. Kennedy currently serving as the Secretary of Health and 4 Human Services, this action is moot. The court cannot ascertain any continued interest in the case 5 that would permit it to move forward. 6 Accordingly, 7 IT IS HEREBY ORDERED, ADJUDGED, and DECREED that this action be 8 DISMISSED as MOOT. The clerk of court is instructed to close the case.
