Questão jurídica principal
Whether the denial-of-justice complaint had become moot because the cantonal court issued its judgment after the federal appeal was filed.
Decisão extraída
Yes. The appellant no longer had a legally protected interest in a finding of delay because the cantonal judgment had already been rendered.
Fundamentação extraída
A complaint about delay is moot once the lower court decides the underlying case; the federal court therefore removes the case from the docket.
