UNPUBLISHED UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

No. 15-2308

In re: CHRISTOPHER WILLIAM ODEN, 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Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.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Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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.

PETITION DENIED
