UNPUBLISHED UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

No. 21-1784

In re: NIKKO TAYLOR WRIGHT, Petitioner.

On Petition for Writ of Mandamus. (8:16-cr-00260-TDC-2)

Submitted: September 2, 2021 Decided: September 9, 2021

Before AGEE and HARRIS, Circuit Judges, and SHEDD, Senior Circuit Judge.

Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Nikko Taylor Wright, Petitioner Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

PER CURIAM: Nikko Taylor Wright petitions for a writ of mandamus, alleging that the district court has unduly delayed acting on his motion for compassionate release. 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 has recently denied relief on Wright’s motion. See United States v. Wright, No. 8:16-cr-00260-TDC-2 (D. Md. filed Aug. 17, 2021 & entered Aug. 18, 2021). Accordingly, because the district court has decided Wright’s case, we deny the mandamus petition as moot. 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
