UNPUBLISHED UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

No. 19-1033

In re: JAMES WILLIAM PAUL SANDERSON, Petitioner.

On Petition for Writ of Mandamus. (7:10-cr-00144-D-1; 7:17-cv-00196-D)

Submitted: March 14, 2019 Decided: March 19, 2019

Before WYNN and RICHARDSON, Circuit Judges, and TRAXLER, Senior Circuit Judge.

Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.

James William Paul Sanderson, Petitioner Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

PER CURIAM: James William Paul Sanderson petitions for a writ of mandamus, alleging that the district court has unduly delayed in ruling on his 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (2012) motion. He seeks an order from this court directing the district court to act. The present record reveals no undue delay in the district court. Accordingly, although we grant leave to proceed in forma pauperis, we 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
