    NOTICE

    The Defendants hereby note that they have, this day, appealed from this Courts final

    judgment in this matter (see attached). The Defendants respectfully suggest that the Court now

    lacks jurisdiction to decide plaintiffs pending Motion for Permanent Injunction (Doc. No. 71),

    as it is a new challenge to a new law, which requires a new lawsuit. See Natl Rifle Assn v.

    Chicago, 393 Fed.Appx. 390, *1 (7th

    Cir. 2010); Queen v. Alvarez, 979 F.Supp.2d 845, 84950

    (N.D. Ill. 2013); Shepard v. Madigan, 958 F.Supp.2d 996, 1000 (S.D. Ill. 2013). See also Fund

    for Animals v. Norton, 390 F.Supp.2d 12, 15 (D.D.C. 2005) (While plaintiffs motion is styled

    as one to enforce the Courts [previous] Order [striking an agency Rule], it is in essence a

    challenge to the [new agency Rule]. Consequently, the proper avenue for plaintiffs arguments is

    a new lawsuit challenging the validity of the [new agency Rule].).
