What is the test for making a claim that an application to join a Grand Jury is moot?

Yet this claim is ultimately moot. See Feldman v. Bomar, 518 F.3d 637, 642 (9th Cir.2008) ("The basic question in determining mootness is whether there is a present controversy as to which effective relief can be granted." (internal quotation marks omitted)). It is evident from the complaint that Appellants were aware of the Grand Jury application process well over two years ago, and the current litigation demonstrates that Appellants are fully aware of how to apply for the Grand Jury. However, they did not apply to be considered in the pool for selection for the Grand Jury at any time. Simply put, there is no indication that Appellants have ever demonstrated any interest in actually becoming Grand Jury members. Appellants' knowledge of the application procedures

[547 F.3d 1054]

renders their challenge to the recruitment procedures moot,
