ORDER
BEFORE: BATCHELDER and KETHLEDGE, Circuit Judges; LEVY, District Judge.*
This matter is before the Court on a Motion to Dismiss for Lack of Jurisdiction filed by
Appellant Kim Davis. The motion has been fully briefed, and the parties agree that Kentucky
Senate Bill 216, which will go into effect before we are scheduled to hear oral argument in this
case, will render these consolidated appeals moot. We therefore dismiss these appeals and
remand this matter to the district court with instructions to vacate its August 12, 2015
preliminary injunction order [DE 43] and its September 3, 2015 order modifying that injunction
[DE 74]. See United States v. Munsingwear, Inc., 340 U.S. 36, 39 (1950). The district court’s

September 3, 2015 order holding Davis in contempt of court [DE 75] does not meet the
requirements for vacatur under Munsingwear and its progeny, and it is therefore not vacated.
