UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

No. 14-1095

In Re: WAYNE PORTER,

Petitioner.

On Petition for Writ of Mandamus. (3:85-cr-00062-RLV-1)

Submitted: October 3, 2014 Decided: October 9, 2014

Before WILKINSON and SHEDD, Circuit Judges, and HAMILTON, Senior Circuit Judge.

Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Wayne Porter, Petitioner Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

Wayne Porter petitions for a writ of mandamus,

alleging the district court has unduly delayed acting on his

Rule 35 motion and his motion for adjudication. 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 these motions on August 26, 2014. Accordingly,

because the district court has recently decided Porter’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 this court and argument would not aid

the decisional process.

PETITION DENIED
