Opinion

UNPUBLISHED UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

No. 20-1247

In re: JOSHUA ANDERSON, Petitioner.

On Petition for Writ of Mandamus. (1:19-cv-00075-LO-TCB)

Submitted: April 14, 2020 Decided: April 17, 2020

Before WILKINSON, QUATTLEBAUM, and RUSHING, Circuit Judges.

Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Joshua Anderson, Petitioner Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

PER CURIAM: Joshua Anderson petitions for a writ of mandamus, alleging that the district court has unduly delayed ruling on his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 (2018) 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 recently took significant action on Anderson’s habeas petition.

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
