{¶ 1} On July 10, 1995, appellant, Tommie Jerninghan, Jr., filed a complaint in mandamus in the Court of Appeals for Cuyahoga County, alleging that his appeal in case No. CV265857 had been dismissed for lack of a final order, and seeking to compel appellees to file a final order in the case. On July 25, 1995, appellees filed a motion to dismiss the complaint as moot, attaching a copy of an order dismissing case No. CV265857. On July 31, 1995, the court of appeals issued a journal entry dismissing the case.
{¶ 2} Appellant appeals to this court as a matter of right.
Per Curiam.
{¶ 3} We affirm the judgment of the court of appeals. A writ of mandamus will not issue to compel an act already performed. State ex rel. Gantt v. Coleman (1983), 6 Ohio St.3d 5, 6 OBR 4, 450 N.E.2d 1163.
