UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS
FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT
No. 00-6223
In Re: PATRICK LAMAR HARRIS,
Petitioner.
On Petition for Writ of Mandamus. (CR-94-297)
Submitted: July 27, 2000 Decided: August 9, 2000
Before MURNAGHAN, WILKINS, and KING, Circuit Judges.
Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Patrick Lamar Harris, Petitioner Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Patrick Harris filed this mandamus petition seeking an order
directing the district court to act on a 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 (West
Supp. 2000) motion. Shortly after this mandamus petition was re-
ceived, the district court entered an order denying Harris’s
motion. In light of the district court’s recent action, we deny
the request for mandamus relief as moot. We dispense with oral
argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately
presented in the materials before the court and argument would not
aid the decisional process.
PETITION DENIED
