Key legal question
Whether the complaint remained admissible despite the lack of an actual current interest.
Extracted holding
The complaint was admissible because the issue could recur under similar circumstances and timely review would otherwise be impossible; the requested declaratory relief was also permissible.
Extracted reasoning
The court applied the exception to the requirement of a current practical interest where the challenged measure is of short duration, likely to recur, and raises questions of public importance.
