MARY J. BOYLE, A.J.:

{¶1} Relator, Demetrius Brown, petitions this court to compel respondent judge

to dispose of his motion for jail-time credit filed in State v. Brown, Cuyahoga C.P. No.

CR-05-464069-A, on February 3, 2014.

{¶2} Respondent has filed a motion for summary judgment citing numerous

procedural deficiencies in Brown’s petition and also attaching a copy of a journal entry

issued by respondent that granted Brown’s motion for jail-time credit on February 11,

2014. Specifically, respondent asserts that Brown failed to comply with the

requirements of R.C. 2969.25(C), Civ.R. 10, Loc.App.R. 45, and R.C. 2969.25. Relator

has not opposed respondent’s motion. Respondent’s motion for summary judgment is

granted based on the procedural deficiencies in Brown’s petition. Further, Brown is not

entitled to a writ of procedendo because the action is moot. State ex rel. Jerninghan v.

Cuyahoga Cty. Court of Common Pleas, 74 Ohio St.3d 278, 1996-Ohio-117, 658 N.E.2d

723; State ex rel. Gantt v. Coleman, 6 Ohio St.3d 5, 450 N.E.2d 1163 (1983).

{¶3} Accordingly, respondent’s motion for summary judgment is granted.

Relator to pay costs. The clerk is directed to serve upon the parties notice of this judgment

and its date of entry upon the journal. Civ.R. 58(B).

Writ denied.
