As a result,the plaintiff’s first motion for a preliminary injunction is moot. Accordingly, it is hereby ORDERED that the defendants’ motion to dismiss the complaint for failure to state a claim upon which relief can be granted pursuant to Rule 12(b)(6) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure [19], which the Court treats as a motion to dismiss Counts I and II of the amended complaint, is GRANTED; it is FURTHER ORDERED that Counts I and II are DISMISSED; and it is FURTHER ORDERED that the plaintiff’s first motion for a preliminary injunction [10] is DENIED as moot. An Opinion explaining the Court’s reasoning underlying this Order will be issued later this week. SO ORDERED.”
