IN RE: Zantwan Devorris WORTHY, Petitioner.
Zantwan Devorris Worthy petitions for a writ of mandamus, alleging that the district court has unduly delayed in ruling on his motion for reconsideration of the district court's order accepting the magistrate judge's recommendation and denying Worthy's 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (2012) motion. Worthy 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 ruled on Worthy's motion on July 29, 2019. Accordingly, although we grant leave to proceed in forma pauperis, we deny the petition for writ of mandamus 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
PER CURIAM:
Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
