UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

No. 11-1917

In re: JOHNNY LEE GORE, a/k/a Manager,

Petitioner.

On Petition for a Writ of Mandamus (4:01-cr-00627-CWH-9; 4:10-cv-70283-CWH)

Submitted: October 13, 2011 Decided: October 17, 2011

Before SHEDD, AGEE, and WYNN, Circuit Judges.

Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Johnny Lee Gore, Petitioner Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

Johnny Lee Gore petitions for a writ of mandamus,

alleging the district court has unduly delayed acting on his

motion for reconsideration. 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 ruled on the

motion on September 9, 2011. Accordingly, because the district

court has recently decided Gore’s motion, 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
