PATRICIA A. BLACKMON, A.J.:
     Relator  requests,  inter  alia,  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. Moore, Cuyahoga County Court of Common  Pleas
Case No. CR-227207 on July 28, 1998.
     Respondents--judge and  prosecuting  attorney--have  jointly
filed a motion for summary judgment (Motion No. 97212) attached to
which is a copy  of the findings of  fact and conclusions of  law
issued by respondent judge and received for filing by the clerk on
July 28, 1998.  Respondents argue that this action in mandamus is,
therefore,  moot.   We  agree.   Additionally,  relator  has  not
demonstrated that he has a clear legal right to any of the  other
relief which he seeks.
     Furthermore, relator  failed  to comply  with Loc.  App.  R.
8(B)(1) which requires  that complaints in  original actions   be
supported by an affidavit from the plaintiff or relator specifying
the details of the claim.
     Accordingly, respondents'  motion  for summary  judgment  is
granted.  Relator to pay costs.
     Writ denied.
