nonjudicial foreclosure sale of their real property. We have jurisdiction under 28
U.S.C. § 1292(a)(1). We dismiss this appeal as moot.
After the Sherbows filed this appeal, the subject property was sold at a
nonjudical foreclosure sale and the district court issued a final judgment dismissing
the underlying action against all defendants. Accordingly, this court cannot grant
the requested relief and the appeal is moot. See Vegas Diamond Props., LLC v.
FDIC, 669 F.3d 933, 936 (9th Cir. 2012) (“[T]he sale of the real properties
prevents this Court from granting the requested relief and accordingly renders this
appeal moot.”); see also Doe & Assocs. Law Offices v. Napolitano, 252 F.3d 1026,
1029 (9th Cir. 2001) (dismissal of underlying action renders moot the district
court’s denial of a preliminary injunctive relief).
Appellees’ July 28, 2016 motion for judicial notice and October 7, 2016
motion to strike are granted.
The Sherbow’s pending motions are denied.
The Clerk shall forward the Sherbows’ August 15, 2016 supplemental notice
of appeal to the district court for filing as a notice of appeal of the final judgment
as provided by Fed. R. App. P. 4(d).
DISMISSED.
