O R D E R 
 
This 17th day of September 2004, this Court has considered Joseph Pryer=s 
petition for a writ of mandamus and the State=s answer and motion to dismiss.  Pryer 
filed his petition requesting this Court to issue an extraordinary writ of mandamus 
directing the Superior Court to act upon his petition for a writ of habeas corpus filed in 
that court.  A review of the Superior Court docket reflects that Pryer’s petition for 
habeas corpus, in fact, was denied on August 2, 2004.  Accordingly, Pryer’s petition 
for a writ of mandamus is moot.  
NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS ORDERED that Pryer’s petition for the issuance of 
an extraordinary writ of mandamus is DISMISSED.
