PER CURIAM.
Pro se appellant Victor Lucky appeals the lower court's January 5, 2026 order that dismissed, as moot, Lucky's petition for writ of mandamus. Lucky had sought below an order compelling the traffic magistrate to rule on three motions Lucky had filed in his traffic court proceedings (case number AM9FLME). We affirm because the record supports the trial court's determination that the traffic magistrate's setting of a pretrial hearing in Lucky's traffic case for January 21, 2026, mooted his mandamus petition. No motion for rehearing will be entertained by this Court.
