Jonathan Fulcher, Mississippi prisoner No. 49574, requests a certificate of appeal-ability (“COA”) to file a cross-appeal of Greer’s appeal from the district court’s interlocutory order holding Fulcher’s 28 U.S.C. § 2254 petition in abeyance pending his exhaustion of an unexhausted claim.

As the Mississippi Supreme Court has now denied Fulcher’s application for permission to seek post-conviction relief with regard to the unexhausted issue, both Fulcher’s appeal and Greer’s appeal are now moot. See City of Erie v. Pap’s A.M., 529 U.S. 277, 287, 120 S.Ct. 1382, 146 L.Ed.2d 265 (2000); United States Parole Comm’n v. Geraghty, 445 U.S. 388, 395-96, 100 S.Ct. 1202, 63 L.Ed.2d 479 (1980).

Accordingly, we DENY AS MOOT Fulcher’s request for a COA and DISMISS AS MOOT Greer’s appeal and the cross-appeal filed by Fulcher.

COA DENIED AS MOOT; APPEALS DISMISSED AS MOOT.
