UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS
FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT
No. 01-7137
In Re: ROGER A. DAMRON,
Petitioner.
On Petition for Writ of Mandamus. (CR-97-16)
Submitted: February 12, 2002 Decided: February 28, 2002
Before MOTZ and KING, Circuit Judges, and HAMILTON, Senior Circuit
Judge.
Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Roger A. Damron, Petitioner Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
In July 2001, Roger Ames Damron filed this petition for a writ
of mandamus seeking an order directing the district court to act on
his motion under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 (West Supp. 2001). The dis-
trict court entered an order denying relief on Damron’s § 2255 mo-
tion on December 28, 2001; Damron’s mandamus petition is therefore
moot. Accordingly, although we grant leave to proceed in forma
pauperis, we deny the petition for a writ of mandamus. 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
