In re RALSTON PURINA COMPANY.

Misc. No. 224.

United States Court of Appeals, Federal Circuit.

Dec. 2, 1988.

Before MAYER, Circuit Judge.

ORDER

1

Ralston Purina Company (Ralston) submitted a petition for writ of mandamus to direct the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois to vacate a magistrate's May 23, 1988 order, adopted by the district court on November 8, 1988. Those orders direct Ralston to produce twenty-two documents for which it claims attorney-client privilege. Ralston now informs the court that the documents were produced on November 23, 1988. Accordingly, we deem Ralston's petition to be moot.

2

Upon consideration thereof,

IT IS ORDERED THAT:

3

Ralston's petition for a writ of mandamus is dismissed as moot.
