PATRICIA A. BLACKMON, A.J.:
     On July 6, 1998, the relator, Lawrence Walker, commenced this
mandamus action against the respondent, the Cuyahoga County Common
Pleas Court, to compel the court to grant him the proper jail time
credit in the underlying cases, State v. Walker, Cuyahoga  County
Common Pleas Court Case Nos. CR-351287 and CR-353793.  He maintains
that he is entitled  to twenty days of  credit, but that he  only
received credit for seven days.  The dockets for the two underlying
cases reveal that on March  30, 1998, he moved the respondent  to
correct and/or clarify jail time credit.
     On July 20, 1998, the respondent moved for summary judgment on
the grounds of mootness.  Attached to the dispositive motion were
copies of  certified  journal entries  in the  underlying  cases,
granting Mr. Walker thirteen days credit in Case No. CR-351287 and
sixteen days credit in Case No. CR-353793.  These journal entries
establish that the respondent has fulfilled its duties, to rule on
the outstanding motions and to state explicitly in a journal entry
the number of days jail  credit to which Mr. Walker is  entitled.
State ex rel.  Corder v. Wilson (1991),  68 Ohio App.3d 567,  589
N.E.2d 113.
     Accordingly, this mandamus action is moot.  The court grants
the respondent's motion for  summary judgment and dismisses  this
case.  Costs assessed against relator.
