MEMORANDUM DECISION
[1] SMHR Holding Company, LLC (“SMHR”) appeals the trial courts order approving the sale by a receiver of property owned by SMHR (“the Property”). In this interlocutory appeal, SMHR raises several issues for our review regarding the trial courts order. However, after this interlocutory appeal was filed with our court, a stay was never granted to pause the trial court proceedings. Therefore, subsequently, on October 29, 2020, Anderson, Agostino & Keller, P.C. (“AAK”) filed a motion for summary judgment, seeking to foreclose their lien against the Property and to obtain an order for the Property to be sold at a sheriffs sale. On November 24, 2020, the trial court granted an order to eject SMHR from the Property, and on December 18, 2020, the trial court issued an order granting summary judgment to AAK, ordering that AAKs lien was valid and enforceable, foreclosing AAKs lien against the Property, and ordering the Property sold at a sheriffs sale. Accordingly, we do not reach the merits of SMHRs appeal because we conclude that the appeal is moot. An issue is moot when “the principal questions in issue have ceased to be matters of real controversy between the parties.” Knapp v. Estate of Wright, 76 N.E.3d 900, 908 n.5 (Ind. Ct. App. 2017) (citing Rainbow Cmty., Inc. v. Town of Burns Harbor, 880 N.E.2d 1254, 1260-61 (Ind. Ct. App. 2008)), trans. denied. Here, because the trial court has subsequently ordered the Property to be sold at a sheriffs sale, the appeal should be dismissed as moot.
