    This document is a court case summary from the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit. It summarizes that the petitioner, Claude F. Bloodgood III, had applied for a writ of mandamus directing the district court to proceed on his civil complaint. However, the district court had since dismissed the civil action without prejudice for Bloodgood's failure to pay a partial filing fee. As such, the Fourth Circuit found that the dismissal of the civil action in the district court rendered Bloodgood's petition for mandamus moot, so it denied the petition and dismissed the appeal.

    2d 545
    Unpublished Disposition

    NOTICE: Fourth Circuit I.O.P. 36.6 states that citation of


    unpublished dispositions is disfavored except for establishing

    service of copies of cited unpublished dispositions of the Fourth

    In re Claude F. BLOODGOOD III, Petitioner.
    No. 86-8023.

    United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.


    Submitted Jan. 29, 1987.
    Decided Dec. 23, 1987.

    Claude F. Bloodgood III, petitioner pro se.


    Before DONALD RUSSELL, JAMES DICKSON PHILLIPS, and
    WILKINS, Circuit Judges.
    PER CURIAM:

    Petitioner Claude F. Bloodgood III has applied to this Court for a writ of
    mandamus directing the district court to proceed on his civil complaint pending
    in that court.

    The district court has now dismissed without prejudice Bloodgood's civil
    action, for his failure to pay a partial filing fee. See Bloodgood v. Sielaff, Misc.
    No. 291-N (E.D.Va., Nov. 25, 1986).

    The dismissal of Bloodgood's civil action in the district court effectively moots
    his petition to this court for a writ of mandamus. Accordingly, although leave to
    proceed in forma pauperis is granted, Bloodgood's petition for a writ of
    mandamus is denied as being moot and this appeal is dismissed.

    DISMISSED.
