UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

No. 10-1495

In Re: EDDIE GAMBLE,

Petitioner.

On Petition for Writ of Mandamus. (1:88-cr-00031-NCT-1; 1:06- cr-00192-NCT-1; 1:08-cv-00926-NCT-WWD)

Submitted: October 14, 2010 Decided: October 20, 2010

Before MOTZ, KING, and DAVIS, Circuit Judges.

Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Eddie Gamble, Petitioner Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM:

Eddie Gamble petitions for a writ of mandamus,

alleging the district court has unduly delayed acting on his

motion filed pursuant to

(West Supp. 2010).

He seeks an order from this court directing the district court

to act. Our review of the district court’s docket reveals that

the district court denied the motion on May 6, 2010.

Accordingly, because the district court has recently decided

Gamble’s case, we deny the mandamus petition as moot. We grant

leave to proceed in forma pauperis. 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
