How later courts describe this case

  • holding that “pursuant to the plain language of Title III of the ADA, public accommodations are limited to actual, physical places,” and thus that “websites are not a place of public accommodation”
  • holding website not place of public accommodation, but later vacated as moot

UpLaw has not yet analyzed Juan Carlos Gil v. Winn-Dixie Stores, Inc.. The absence of a flag is not a finding that it is good law.

BEFORE: JILL PRYOR, BRANCH, Circuit Judges, and REEVES,∗
District Judge.
PER CURIAM:
       The Petition for Panel Rehearing filed by Appellee Juan
Carlos Gil is GRANTED. Due to the expiration of the injunction
while the appeal was pending and the absence of any formal award
of declaratory relief, the appeal was rendered moot. “A moot case
is nonjusticiable and Article III courts lack jurisdiction to entertain
it.” Troiano v. Supervisor of Elections in Palm Beach Cnty., Fla.,
382 F.3d 1276, 1281
 (11th Cir. 2004).
      Accordingly, we vacate our opinion and the underlying
judgment, dismiss the appeal, and remand for the district court to
dismiss the case as moot.




∗Honorable Danny C. Reeves, United States District Chief Judge for the
Eastern District of Kentucky, sitting by designation.
