            The Honorable Danny J. Boggs, United States Circuit Judge for the
U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit, sitting by designation.
      Amany Simmonds appeals the district court’s order denying her motion to

remand and granting Wells Fargo’s motion to dismiss. We dismiss Simmonds’s

appeal as moot.

      Simmonds’s complaint claims only that Wells Fargo violated state laws in

recording a “Substitution of Trustee” and a “Notice of Default and Election to Sell

under a Deed of Trust” against the real property at issue in this appeal, and requests

that these recorded documents be voided, canceled and set aside. Because the

property was sold on November 29, 2018, the cancellation of the recorded

documents would have no effect. Moreover, Simmonds has waived any claim for

damages by asserting in her opening brief on appeal that she is seeking only

injunctive relief. Accordingly, Simmonds’s appeal is moot. See Chafin v. Chafin,

, 172 (2013). We decline Simmonds’s request to issue an advisory

opinion regarding whether the recorded notices met state requirements. See Shell

Offshore Inc. v. Greenpeace, Inc., 

, 628 (9th Cir. 2016).

      The copy of this order shall constitute the mandate of this Court.1

      DISMISSED.
