    IN RE: Alton D. BROWN, Petitioner
    No. 16-2749
    United States Court of Appeals, Third Circuit.
    Submitted Pursuant to Rule 21, Fed. R. App. P. February 13, 2017
    (Opinion filed: March 16, 2017)
    Aton D. Brown, Pro Se
    Before: SMITH, Chief Judge, McKEE and FUENTES, Circuit Judges
   OPINION

PER CURIAM

Aton D. Brown filed a petition for writ of mandamus requesting that we direct the District Court to rule bn a request for an opportunity to appeal the District Court’s dismissal order in Brown v. Lancaster, M.D. Pa. Civ. No. 3:14-cv-01180. The District Court has since ruled on Brown’s filing. In light of the District Court’s action, the question Brown presented is no longer a live controversy, so we will dismiss his mandamus petition as moot. See, e.g., Lusardi v. Xerox Corp., 975 F.2d 964, 974 (3d Cir. 1992). 
      
       This disposition is not an opinion of the full Court and pursuant to I.O.P. 5.7 does not constitute binding precedent.
