KK-PB Financial, LLC v. 160 Royal Palm, LLC

Issue: (1) Whether the dismissal of an appeal of a bankruptcy court confirmation order based on "equitable mootness" renders an appeal from the same case "constitutionally moot," even though a possibility of relief for the appellant still exists; and (2) whether the judge-made doctrine of "equitable mootness" in the context of bankruptcy appeals " which has been used to dismiss appeals despite the presence of federal jurisdiction and the existence of live disputes " should be rejected or at least subject to a requirement to conduct a preliminary review of the merits of the appeal.
