Hey, lawyer pedes, I haven't had a chance to read the decision yet so maybe the wording is specific in this case, but can this "moot" point now be used in arguments in any case where the damage is already done and the court can't change the outcome?

Curious if "moot" could be argued in, say, a murder case.

That is a interesting thought. In most cases courts are ruling after the damage took place... that's what is so odd about this. It can have a effect so they should rule on it's merits.
