UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS
FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT
No. 03-6930
In Re: DAVID J. OAKES,
Petitioner.
On Petition for Writ of Mandamus. (CA-03-227-5-BO)
Submitted: October 15, 2003 Decided: October 28, 2003
Before NIEMEYER, KING, and GREGORY, Circuit Judges.
Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.
David J. Oakes, Petitioner Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
David J. Oakes petitions for a writ of mandamus, alleging the
district court has unduly delayed acting on his emergency motion
for a temporary restraining order. He seeks an order from this
court directing the district court to act. Our review of the
docket sheet reveals that the district court entered an order
denying Oakes’ emergency motion for a temporary restraining order.
Accordingly, because the district court has recently decided Oakes’
case, 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 the court and argument would not
aid the decisional process.
PETITION DENIED
