Jacksonville Property Rights Association, Inc. v. City of Jacksonville, Florida
Opinion
In Jacksonville Property Rights Ass’n, Inc. v. City of Jacksonville, 635 F.3d 1266, 1277 (11th Cir. 2011), we dismissed the parties’ appeals, vacated the District Court’s judgment, and remanded the case to the District Court “with instructions to dismiss this action.” Following the issuance of our mandate, appellants moved the District Court for leave to amend their complaint and for other relief. The District Court, following the mandate rule, see Piambino v. Bailey, 757 F.2d 1112, 1120 (11th Cir. 1985), dismissed the case 1 , “reserv[ing] jurisdiction to consider any timely filed motions for attorneys’ fees and costs.”
Appellants now appeal the District Court’s ruling. The District Court did precisely what our mandate instructed it to do, i.e., dismiss the action. We accordingly affirm.
AFFIRMED.
. We construe the dismissal to be without prejudice, since the basis for our disposition of the parties' appeals was that the case was moot.
