UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS
FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT
No. 02-6532
In Re: BRIAN TIMOTHY HUGGINS,
Petitioner.
On Petition for Writ of Mandamus. (CA-01-4527)
Submitted: April 17, 2002 Decided: April 29, 2002
Before WILLIAMS, MICHAEL, and MOTZ, Circuit Judges.
Petition dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Brian Timothy Huggins, Petitioner Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Brian Timothy Huggins petitions this court for a writ of
mandamus directing the district court to require the United States
to respond to his 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 (West Supp. 2001) motion,
which Huggins filed in November 2001. The district court docket
sheet reveals that on March 27, 2002, the district court ordered
the United States to respond. Accordingly, Huggins has received
the relief he seeks. We deny the motion for leave to proceed in
forma pauperis and dismiss the mandamus petition as moot. We
dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions
are adequately presented in the materials before us and argument
would not aid the decisional process.
PETITION DISMISSED
