OPINION
PER CURIAM.
Pro se petitioner, Kenneth Chaplin, has filed a mandamus petition pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1651, wherein he seeks to compel the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania to rule on a motion he filed pursuant to Fed.R.Civ.P. 59(e) wherein he seeks reconsideration of the denial of his Rule 60(b) motion. Finding no basis for granting mandamus relief, we will deny the petition.
From a review of the District Court docket, an order disposing of the reconsideration motion was entered on March 12, 2014. Accordingly, Chaplin's petition for writ of mandamus seeking to compel the District Court to dispose of his motion is moot. The petition for a writ of mandamus is thus denied.
