UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

No. 03-7579

In Re: MARVIN R. ANDERSON,

Petitioner.

On Petition for Writ of Mandamus. (CR-99-239)

Submitted: January 28, 2004 Decided: February 12, 2004

Before WILLIAMS, MICHAEL, and MOTZ, Circuit Judges.

Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Marvin R. Anderson, Petitioner Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. See Local Rule 36(c). PER CURIAM:

Marvin R. Anderson petitions for a writ of mandamus,

alleging the district court has unduly delayed acting on his motion

filed under

(2000). He seeks an order from this

court directing the district court to act. Our review of the

docket sheet reveals that the district court recently denied his

motion. See United States v. Anderson, No. CR-99-239 (S.D.W. Va.

Dec. 2, 2003). Accordingly, because the district court has

recently decided Anderson’s case, we deny the 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.

PETITION DENIED
