                                        ___________


PER CURIAM

       Before us is Steven Mensah-Yawson’s petition for a writ of mandamus, in which

he requests an order directing the District Court to rule on his petition for a writ of error

coram nobis. The District Court ruled on and denied that petition on April 2, 2015.




*
 This disposition is not an opinion of the full Court and pursuant to I.O.P. 5.7 does not
constitute binding precedent.
Thus, Mensah-Yawson’s mandamus 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).
