Opinion

The Court dismisses the petition for writ of mandamus as moot. See State ex rel. Davis v. Milledge, 88 So. 2d 909, 909 (Fla. 1956) (dismissing mandamus proceeding because question raised in petition became moot); see also Barrs v. Peacock, 65 Fla. 12, 61 So. 118, 118 (1913) (explaining that a court may dismiss an appeal on its own motion if it appears that “under no circumstances can th[e] relief prayed be made effective”); Godwin v. State, 593 So. 2d 211, 212 (Fla. 1992) (“A case is ‘moot’ when it presents no actual controversy or when the issues have ceased to exist. A moot case generally will be dismissed.”).

Per Curiam.
