STATE OF MICHIGAN COURT OF APPEALS KRISTY K. ARIM, UNPUBLISHED April 28, 2000 Plaintiff-Appellant, v No. 217719 Ottawa Circuit Court LC No. 97 027768 DZ WILLIAM S. ARIM, Defendant-Appellee, Before: Gage, P.J., and Meter and Owens, JJ. MEMORANDUM. In this divorce and child custody action, plaintiff appeals by leave granted from a December 14, 1998 temporary order that contained a provision requiring plaintiff to answer defendant’s discovery requests concerning sexual abuse that plaintiff’s father inflicted on her. While this appeal was pending, a trial was held regarding plaintiff’s complaint and the trial court entered a judgment of divorce. Because a trial has already occurred and a judgment already has been entered, any pretrial discovery issue concerning this case has become moot. B P 7 v Bureau of State Lottery, 231 Mich App 356, 359; 586 NW2d 117 (1998) (“An issue is deemed moot when an event occurs that renders it impossible for a reviewing court to grant relief.”). Therefore, we decline to review this matter and instead order its dismissal pursuant to MCR 7.216(A)(7). We further deny as inappropriate plaintiff’s request for appellate attorney fees. MCR 7.216(C). Appeal dismissed as moot. /s/ Hilda R. Gage /s/ Patrick M. Meter /s/ Donald S. Owens -1­
