UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

No. 15-1866

In Re: SAMUEL IRVIN WHITE,

Petitioner.

On Petition for Writ of Mandamus. (1:06-cr-00002-CMH-1; 1:10-cv-00935-CMH)

Submitted: December 15, 2015 Decided: December 28, 2015

Before NIEMEYER, SHEDD, and DUNCAN, Circuit Judges.

Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Samuel Irvin White, Petitioner Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

Samuel Irvin White petitions for a writ of mandamus,

alleging the district court has unduly delayed acting on his

(2012) motion. Our review of the district court’s

docket reveals that the district court entered an order and

judgment on November 16, 2015, denying relief on White’s § 2255

motion. Accordingly, because the district court has recently

decided White’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
