JAMES M. PORTER, A.J.:
     On March 2, 1999, the relator, Leonard Corbin, commenced this
mandamus action against the respondent, the Court of Common Pleas,
to compel the court to issue findings of fact and conclusions  of
law for postconviction relief petitions, which Mr. Corbin filed in
the underlying cases,  State of Ohio v. Leonard Corbin,  Cuyahoga
County Common Pleas Court Case Nos. CR-19578 and 19129.  On April
7, 1999, the respondent, through the Cuyahoga County  Prosecutor,
moved for summary judgment on the grounds of mootness.  Mr. Corbin
never filed a response.  Attached to the dispositive motion  were
copies  of certified,  signed  and file-stamped  journal  entries
containing the requisite findings of fact and conclusions of  law
for Mr. Corbin's petitions.  These attachments establish that the
court has fulfilled  its duty to issue  the findings of fact  and
conclusions of law and that Mr. Corbin has received his requested
relief, a resolution of his postconviction petitions.
     Additionally, Mr. Corbin failed to support his complaint for
mandamus with an affidavit specifying the details of the claims as
required by Local Rule 45(B)(1)(a).
     Accordingly, the motion for summary judgment is granted, and
this writ action is dismissed.  Costs assessed against relator.
