IN RE: Michael S. OWL FEATHER-GORBEY, Petitioner.
Michael S. Owl Feather-Gorbey filed an amended petition for a writ of mandamus, alleging that the district court has unduly delayed ruling on motions in two of his cases. 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 decided the motions identified by Owl Feather-Gorbey. Accordingly, although we grant Owl Feather-Gorbey’s motion to proceed without the prepayment of fees under the Prison Litigation Reform Act as well as his motion to file his amended mandamus petition, we deny the amended petition as moot. We also deny Owl Feather-Gorbey’s motion for injunctive relief and deny his motion for an order directing prison officials to complete forms on his behalf. 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.
