USCA4 Appeal: 26-1726 Doc: 9 Filed: 07/21/2026 Pg: 2 of 2

PER CURIAM: Magus Jamye Reficul Ahnend petitions for writ of mandamus, alleging that the district court has unduly delayed in ruling on his objections to the magistrate judge’s report and recommendation in Ahnend’s civil case. 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 adopted the magistrate judge’s recommendation and dismissed Ahnend’s case on June 25, 2026. Accordingly, because the district court has recently decided Ahnend’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
