UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS
FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT
No. 00-7174
In Re: VINCENT EUGENE LINEBERGER,
Petitioner.
On Petition for Writ of Mandamus. (CA-00-103-3)
Submitted: November 30, 2000 Decided: December 14, 2000
Before LUTTIG, MICHAEL, and MOTZ, Circuit Judges.
Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Vincent Eugene Lineberger, Petitioner Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Vincent Eugene Lineberger petitions this court for a writ of
mandamus directing the district court to act upon his petition
filed pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241 (1994). The district court
entered a final order on September 5, 2000, denying relief on
Lineberger’s habeas petition. Accordingly, we grant Lineberger
leave to proceed in forma pauperis but deny the mandamus petition
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
