PER CURIAM:

Mitchell Danyell Banks petitions for a writ of mandamus, alleging that the district

court has unduly delayed in ruling on his

motion, which Banks filed in

March 2025. Banks asks this court to enforce the district court’s compliance with the

statutory time limits contained in

.

Review of the district court’s docket reveals that Banks filed a reply to the

Government’s response to his § 2255 motion in July 2025. Thus, to the extent that Banks

asks us to order the district court to decide the § 2255 motion, the present record reveals

no undue delay in Banks’ habeas proceeding.

We therefore 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
