PER CURIAM: Larry Davis petitions for a writ of mandamus, alleging that the district court has unduly delayed acting on his 28 U.S.C. § 2254 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 has now ruled on Davis’ § 2254 petition. Davis v. Bishop, No. 1:17-cv- 03002-CCB (D. Md. filed June 27, 2022 & entered June 28, 2022). Accordingly, because the district court has recently decided Davis’ 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
