OPINION
McKEE, Chief Judge.
Rhodia, S.A., appeals the district court’s denial of the motion it filed pursuant to Section 8 of the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 3, (“FAA”), in which Rhodia asked the district court to dismiss or stay an action filed against Rhodia by Invista S.á.r.l., Invista Technologies, S.a.r.l. and Invista North America S.á.r.l. (“INVISTA”). 1 For the reasons set forth below, we will dismiss Rhodia’s appeal because Rhodia’s attempt to resolve the underlying dispute through arbitration under the § 3 of the FAA is now moot.
