On August 18, 2004, the Supreme Court of Louisiana transferred the appeal of the Honorable W. Fox McKeithen (“McKeithen”), in his capacity as Louisiana’s Secretary of State, to this court for consideration of a judgment of the Civil District Court for the Parish of Orleans preliminarily enjoining the state from placing a proposed constitutional amendment on the ballot for 18 September 2004. The Supreme Court determined that it did not have appellate jurisdiction of the matter pursuant to La. Const, art. Y, § 5(D) because no law or ordinance had been declared unconstitutional; this court has appellate jurisdiction of the matter by virtue of La. Const, art. V, § 10(A). See Forum for Equality PAC v. City of New Orleans, 2004-2104 (La.8/17/04), 882 So.2d 543.
Since the trial court’s rendition of the judgment granting the writ of preliminary injunction on August 13, 2004, the trial court rendered a judgment on August 20, 2004, granting a writ of permanent injunction enjoining the state from placing the proposed amendment, Act 926 of the 2004 Regular Session of the Louisiana Legislature,1 on the ballot on September 18, 2004. *1173The granting of a 1 ¿writ of permanent injunction moots the preliminary injunction. Armstrong v. Armstrong, 181 So.2d 876, 877 (La.App. 4th Cir.1966); Mount Gideon Baptist Church, Inc. v. Robinson, 2001-0749 (La.App. 1 Cir. 2/15/02), 812 So.2d 758, 762.
Accordingly, we dismiss the present appeal as moot.
