Description
Order The United States Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) and individual defendants appeal the district court's order declaring 8 U.S.C. § 1252(a)(2) unconstitutional insofar as it did not provide the plaintiff a bail hearing pending deportation proceedings. The district court also directed defendants to conduct a bail hearing to determine the plaintiff's suitability for release on bail pending a final adjudication of deportability. Pending this appeal the Immigration Act of 1990, Pub. L. 101-649, was enacted which amends 8 U.S.C. § 1252(a)(2) to require the release on bond of aliens ""lawfully admitted for permanent residence"" if ""the alien is not a threat to the community and . . . is likely to appear before any scheduled hearings."" The government defendants now move this court to vacate the district court's judgment and remand with instructions that the case be dismissed as moot. The plaintiff responds that the appeal should be summarily dismissed or the lower judgment summarily affirmed, but that the district court should not be directed to vacate its judgment. When an appeal is rendered moot prior to final disposition, the appellate court must vacate the lower court's judgment and remand with instructions to dismiss. Deakins v. Monaghan, 484 U.S. 193, 200 (1988); Neighbors Organized to Insure a Sound Environment, Inc. v. McArtor, 878 F.2d 174, 179 (6th Cir. 1989). Vacation and remand for dismissal is also appropriate where an intervening amendment to a statute renders moot a decision that the prior statute violated constitutional provisions. See U.S. Dept. of Treasury, Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms v. Galioto, 477 U.S. 556 (1986).
