Samuel DeWitt McCotter filed a petition for writ of mandamus alleging undue delay by the district court in ruling on his petition for Writ of Error Coram Nobis. The district court dismissed the petition for Writ of Error Coram Nobis on July 28, 2003. Accordingly, the mandamus petition is now moot. Thus, although we grant McCotter’s application to proceed on appeal in forma pauperis, we deny the petition for mandamus relief. 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
