OPINION *

In March 2016, Alton Brown, a Pennsylvania prisoner proceeding pro se, filed a petition for a writ of mandamus, requesting that we order the District Court to rule on his motion for reconsideration of the order dismissing his amended complaint without prejudice and his motion to recuse in Brown v. Wetzel, E.D. Pa. Civ. No. 2:14-cv-05762. However, the District Court ruled on those motions in February 2016, before Brown submitted this petition. Apparently as a result of a prison transfer, Brown did not receive the ruling when it was entered. 1

Because the District Court has ruled on Brown’s motions and he has received the mandamus relief he requested, his mandamus petition is moot. See, e.g., Blanciak v. Allegheny Ludlum Corp., 77 F.3d 690, 698-99 (3d Cir. 1996). Accordingly, we will dismiss Brown’s mandamus petition.
