UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

No. 13-1772

In re: MICHAEL S. GORBEY,

Petitioner.

On Petition for Writ of Mandamus. (2:12-cv-00667-RAJ-TEM)

Submitted: October 22, 2013 Decided: October 24, 2013

Before WILKINSON, NIEMEYER, and THACKER, Circuit Judges.

Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Michael S. Gorbey, Petitioner Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

Michael S. Gorbey petitions for a writ of mandamus,

seeking an order from this court directing the district court to

serve on Respondent his

(2006) petitions and

order a response. Our review of the district court’s docket

reveals that Gorbey’s petitions were served on Respondent, and

Respondent has filed responsive pleadings. Accordingly, because

Gorbey has received the relief he seeks, we grant his motion to

proceed in forma pauperis but deny the mandamus petition as

moot. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and

legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials

before this court and argument would not aid the decisional

process.

PETITION DENIED
