DISMISSED AND REMANDED.
Before SPROUSE and CHAPMAN, Circuit Judges, and HOFFMAN, Senior United States District Judge for the Eastern District of Virginia, sitting by designation.
PER CURIAM:
The Appalachian Agency for Senior Citizens, et al, appeal the district court order granting summary judgment to the defendant and upholding Virginia's formula for distributing Title III funds of the Older Americans Act, 42 U.S.C. §§ 3021 et seq. After this appeal was filed, the Virginia Department for the Aging promulgated a new funding formula which supersedes the contested formula.
The promulgation of the new funding formula has rendered this appeal moot. Accordingly, this appeal is dismissed and remanded with leave granted for the appellant agencies to file an amended complaint and to submit such further evidence as may be appropriate.
DISMISSED AND REMANDED
