Proceeding pursuant to CPLR article 78 in the nature of mandamus, inter alia, to compel the determination of the petitioner’s motion to reargue a motion to vacate certain judgments.
Upon the petition and papers filed in support of the proceeding, and the papers filed in opposition thereto, it is
Adjudged that the petition is denied and the proceeding is dismissed, without costs or disbursements.
*683The extraordinary remedy of mandamus will lie only to compel the performance of a ministerial act, and only when there exists a clear legal right to the relief sought (see, Matter of Legal Aid Socy. v Scheinman, 53 NY2d 12, 16). The petitioner here has failed to demonstrate a clear legal right to the relief sought.
We note that the motion to reargue has been decided. Miller, J. P., Lawrence, Ritter and Pizzuto, JJ., concur.
