STATE OF OHIO EX REL., CORNELIUS MOORER RELATOR vs. MICHAEL P. DONNELLY, JUDGE RESPONDENT

JUDGMENT: WRIT DENIED

Writ of Procedendo Motion No. 473412 Order No. 474025 RELEASE DATE: May 13, 2014 FOR RELATOR Cornelius Moorer, pro se Inmate No. A543-644 Marion Correctional Institution P.O. Box 57 Marion, OH 43301

ATTORNEYS FOR RESPONDENT Timothy J. McGinty Cuyahoga County Prosecutor BY: James E. Moss Assistant County Prosecutor The Justice Center, 9th Floor 1200 Ontario Street Cleveland, OH 44113

MELODY J. STEWART, J.: {¶1} Cornelius Moorer has filed a complaint for a writ of procedendo. Moorer seeks a writ that requires Judge Michael P. Donnelly to render a ruling with regard to a motion to “correct the journal entry filed on March 19, 2008, to properly reflect the sentence imposed in open court on March 17, 2008” that was journalized in State v. Moorer, Cuyahoga C.P. No. CR-07-497196-A. We decline to issue a writ of procedendo on behalf of Moorer.

{¶2} Attached to Judge Donnelly’s motion for summary judgment is a copy of a judgment entry, journalized on March 21, 2014, which demonstrates that a ruling has been issued with regard to Moorer’s motion to correct the original sentencing journal entry. Moorer’s request for a writ of procedendo is moot. State ex rel. Fontanella v. Kantos, 117 Ohio St.3d 514, 2008-Ohio-1431, 885 N.E.2d 220; State ex rel. Reynolds v. Basinger, 99 Ohio St.3d 303, 2003-Ohio-3631, 791 N.E.2d 459. In addition, a writ of procedendo will not issue to compel the performance of a duty that has already been performed. State ex rel. Rose v. McGinty, 123 Ohio St.3d 86, 2009-Ohio-4050, 914 N.E.2d 366; State ex rel. Sevayega v. McMonagle, 122 Ohio St.3d 54, 2009-Ohio-2367, 907 N.E.2d 1180. {¶3} Accordingly, we grant Judge Donnelly’s motion for summary judgment.

Costs to Moorer. The court directs the clerk of court to serve all parties with notice of this judgment and the date of entry upon the journal as required by Civ.R. 58(B).

{¶4} Writ denied.
