ALD-252 NOT PRECEDENTIAL UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE THIRD CIRCUIT ___________ No. 16-1797 ___________ IN RE: FRANK E. VOTH, Petitioner ____________________________________ On a Petition for Writ of Mandamus from the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey (Related to D.N.J. Civ. No. 3-14-cv-07582) ____________________________________ Submitted Pursuant to Rule 21, Fed. R. App. P. May 12, 2016 Before: AMBRO, SHWARTZ, and NYGAARD, Circuit Judges (Opinion filed: June 1, 2016) _________ OPINION* _________ PER CURIAM Frank E. Voth filed a petition for a writ of mandamus seeking an order directing the District Court to rule on his motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis. The District Court granted that motion on April 28, 2016. Thus, because Voth has received all of the relief he requested, his petition is moot and we will dismiss it on that basis. See Blanciak v. Allegheny Ludlum Corp., 77 F.3d 690, 698-99 (3d Cir. 1996). * This disposition is not an opinion of the full Court and pursuant to I.O.P. 5.7 does not constitute binding precedent.
