BPS-160 NOT PRECEDENTIAL UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE THIRD CIRCUIT ________________ No. 06-1059 ________________ IN RE: JORGE PORTE, Petitioner ________________ On a Petition for Writ of Mandamus from the United States District Court for the Middle District of Pennsylvania (Related to M.D. Pa. No. 04-cv-01534) ________________ Submitted Under Rule 21, Fed. R. App. Pro.

March 16, 2006 BEFORE: RENDELL, AMBRO and BECKER, Circuit Judges (Filed: March 24, 2006) ________________ OPINION ________________ PER CURIAM In July 2004 Jorge Porte filed a habeas corpus petition pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241. In December 2005 Porte filed a mandamus petition seeking an order compelling the District Court to rule on his petition. Shortly thereafter the District Court did so, denying the petition on January 9, 2006.

Accordingly, the mandamus petition is moot, and we will deny it.
