ORDER

1
Petitioner Stephen D. Brown appeals from a district court order dismissing his petition for writ of habeas corpus without prejudice.   Petitioner argues that he has waited 7 1/2 years for the State of Indiana to provide him with a transcript of his 1984 trial, and that he was denied effective assistance of counsel because no direct appeal or post-conviction motions were ever filed.


2
Respondents provided petitioner with the trial transcript at oral arguments before this court.   The obstacle to a state appeal has now been removed.   See  Lumbert v. Finley, 735 F.2d 239, 240-41 (7th Cir.1984);   Lowe v. Duckworth, 663 F.2d 42, 43 (7th Cir.1981).   Petitioner may present his claims to the state courts.


3
Accordingly, the appeal is DISMISSED as moot.
