PATRICIA A. BLACKMON,, A.J.:
     Relator requests that this court compel respondent judge  to
                               -2-
issue findings of fact and conclusions of law with respect to the
petition for postconviction  relief filed by relator in State  v.
Heckelmoser, Cuyahoga County  Court of Common Pleas Case No.  CR-
300191 in February, 1997 and supplemented in January, 1998.
     Respondent has filed a motion for summary judgment (Motion No.
96339) 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 June 30, 1998.  Relator has not opposed the  motion.
Clearly, this action in mandamus is moot.
     Accordingly, respondent's  motion  for summary  judgment  is
granted.  Respondent to pay costs.
     Writ denied.
