IN RE: Jose Delores VANEGAS, a/k/a Chivito, Petitioner.
Jose Delores Vanegas petitions for a writ of mandamus, alleging that the district court has unduly delayed acting on his 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (2018) motion and his motions for a hearing, to expedite, and for return of property. He seeks an order from this court directing the district court to act. Our review of the district court's docket reveals that on March 23, 2020, the district court denied Vanegas’ § 2255 motion and his motions to expedite and for a hearing, and on April 17, 2020, granted his motion for return of property. Accordingly, because the district court has recently addressed Vanegas’ motions, 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.
