ANN DYKE, A.J.:
     Relator, Daniel Hrynczyn, has filed a complaint for a writ of
mandamus.   The relator  seeks  an order  from this  court  which
                               -2-
requires the respondent,  Judge David T. Matia, to issue  rulings
with regard to a petition for post-conviction relief and a motion
for jail time credit as filed in the underlying case of State  v.
Hrynczyn,  Cuyahoga County  Court of  Common Pleas  235605.   The
respondent has filed a motion for summary judgment.
     Attached to the respondent's motion for summary judgment is a
copy of a journal entry, as journalized on December 15, 2000, which
contains findings of fact  and conclusions of law and denies  the
relator's petition for post-conviction relief.  In addition,  the
journal entry  of December  15, 2000,  reflects a  denial of  the
relator's motion  for  jail time  credit.   Thus,  the  relator's
complaint for a writ of mandamus is moot.  State ex rel. Snider v.
Stapelton(1992), 65 Ohio St.3d 40; State ex rel. Richard v. Wells
(1992), 64 Ohio St.3d 76.
     Accordingly, we grant  the respondent's  motion for  summary
judgment. Costs to relator.  Clerk to serve notices to all parties
as provided in Civ.R. 58(B).
     Writ denied.
