In Re: Christopher Oden v.

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit January 19, 2016

Opinion

No. 15-2308

Petitioner.

On Petition for Writ of Mandamus. (3:15-cv-00196-JAG-RCY)

Submitted: January 14, 2016 Decided: January 19, 2016

Before AGEE, WYNN, and FLOYD, Circuit Judges.

Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Christopher William Oden, Petitioner Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

Christopher William Oden petitions for a writ of mandamus,

alleging that the district court has unduly delayed in ruling on

his

28 U.S.C. § 2241

(2012) petition. He seeks an order from this

court directing the district court to act. We find the present

record does not reveal undue delay in the district court.

Accordingly, we grant leave to proceed in forma pauperis and deny

the mandamus petition. 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.
