UNPUBLISHED UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

No. 18-2192

In re: SHARU BEY, Petitioner.

On Petition for Writ of Mandamus. (5:18-hc-02109-FL)

Submitted: February 15, 2019 Decided: March 4, 2019

Before KING and KEENAN, Circuit Judges, and SHEDD, Senior Circuit Judge.

Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Sharu Bey, Appellant Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

PER CURIAM: Sharu Bey petitions for a writ of mandamus, alleging that the district court has unduly delayed acting on his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 (2012) petition. 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 dismissed Bey’s § 2241 petition without prejudice on November 30, 2018. Accordingly, because the district court has recently decided Bey’s case, we deny the mandamus petition as moot. We grant leave to proceed in forma pauperis and 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
