1Opinion of the Court
KITCHENS, Justice, for the Court.
¶ 1. This appeal arises from a dispute between the Third Circuit Drug Court and the Lafayette County Board of Supervisors regarding Lafayette County’s alleged duty to administer the drug court’s funding and the drug court’s having required that county to place a drug court employee on its payroll. Because Union County has replaced Lafayette County as the lead *786county for the Third Circuit Drug Court, we dismiss the appeal as moot.1
