OPINION
_______________________
PER CURIAM.
On June 21, 2007, Martin Veloz, a.k.a. Mayobanex Dejesus Adames, filed a
petition for writ of mandamus requesting that we direct the District Court to enter a
judgment of sentence in his criminal case. On June 22, 2007, the District Court entered
the judgment of sentence. In light of the District Court’s action, the question Veloz
1
presented is no longer a live controversy, so we will deny the petition as moot. See, e.g.,
Lusardi v. Xerox Corp., 975 F.2d 964, 974 (3d Cir. 1992).
