Michael Lynn Snider filed this mandamus petition seeking an order directing the district court to act upon his 42 U.S.C. Sec. 1983 (1988) complaint. The record reflects that the district court has issued a final order dismissing the complaint. Accordingly, although we grant permission to proceed in forma pauperis, we dismiss Snider's mandamus petition as moot. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the Court and argument would not aid the decisional process.
