State Ex Rel. Lisboa v. McCafferty, 92752 (3-9-2009)

JOURNAL ENTRY AND OPINION ¶ 1 Jose Lisboa has filed a complaint for a writ of procedendo. Lisboa seeks an order from this court, which requires Judge Bridget M. McCafferty to render a ruling with regard to a "motion for discharge and or dismiss charges" that was filed in State v. Lisboa, Cuyahoga County Court of Common Pleas Case No. CR-451451. Judge McCafferty has filed a motion for summary judgement, which demonstrates that Lisboa's request for a writ of procedendo is moot. ¶ 2 Attached to Judge McCafferty's motion for summary judgment is a copy of a judgment entry, journalized on February 23, 2009, which demonstrates that a ruling has been rendered with regard to Lisboa's "motion for discharge and or dismiss charges." Thus, Lisboa's request for a writ of procedendo is moot. State ex *Page 3 rel. Snider v. Stapleton (1992), 65 Ohio St.3d 40, 600 N.E.2d 240;State ex rel. Richard v.
