UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE THIRD CIRCUIT

IN RE: JAMALUD-DIN ALMAHDI, 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. 05-cv-01067) _______________

Submitted Under Rule 21, Fed. R. App. P. January 27, 2006

Before: CHIEF JUDGE SCIRICA, WEIS and GARTH, CIRCUIT JUDGES

(Filed: February 7, 2006)

OPINION

PER CURIAM.

Pro se Petitioner Jamalud-din Almadhi, a federal prisoner, seeks a writ of

mandamus to compel the United States District Court for the Middle District of

Pennsylvania to reach a decision on his motion to alter or amend judgment filed on

August 5, 2005. We will deny the petition for writ of mandamus as moot.

At the time of the filing of the petition for writ of mandamus in this Court,

1 the District Court had not ruled on Almahdi’s motion to alter or amend. However, on

January 17, 2006, the District Court denied this motion. Therefore, this petition for writ

of mandamus will be denied as moot.
