PATRICIA A. GLACKMON, A.J.:
     Relator requests that this court compel respondent judge  to
issue findings of fact and conclusions of law with respect to the
petition for postconviction  relief filed by relator in State  v.
Tillman, Cuyahoga County Court of Common Pleas Case No. CR-254165
on September 23, 1996.
     Respondent has filed a motion for summary judgment (Motion No.
97159) attached to which  is a copy of  the findings of fact  and
conclusions of law issued by respondent and received for filing by
the clerk on July 21, 1998.  Relator has not opposed the  motion.
Respondent argues that this  action in procedendo is,  therefore,
moot.  We agree.
     Accordingly, respondent's  motion  for summary  judgment  is
granted.  Respondent to pay costs.
     Writ denied.
JAMES M. PORTER, J., CONCURS.
