BETTY B. FLETCHER, Circuit Judge.
We are asked to reverse the district court’s order denying Gene Bridges’ (“Bridges”) motion for the return of his property that was seized as part of a criminal investigation. Bridges had not been indicted for any crime at the time he filed this appeal. However, before the parties had finished briefing, Bridges was indicted and is currently scheduled to be tried before a jury. By order of December 1, 2000, we dismissed the appeal for lack of jurisdiction, and we write to explain our decision.
