Syllabus

The Court does not render advisory opinions, and an appeal will be dismissed if the issues become? moot? or academic, leaving no actual controversy to be determined. An appeal is not moot if the district court's decision continues to have collateral consequences for the appealing party. Collateral consequences cannot be too remote or speculative and cannot be duplicative of preexisting consequences.
