FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT
No. 04-7231
IN RE: GEORGE ANTHONY DEMPSEY,
Petitioner.
On Petition for Writ of Mandamus.
(CA-03-2890-9-20BG)
Submitted: September 16, 2004 Decided: September 24, 2004
Before LUTTIG, KING, and DUNCAN, Circuit Judges.
Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.
George Anthony Dempsey, Petitioner Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
George Anthony Dempsey petitions for writ of mandamus,
alleging the district court has unduly delayed acting on his
petition filed under 28 U.S.C. § 2241 (2000). He seeks an order
from this court directing the district court to act. We find there
has been no undue delay in the district court. Accordingly,
although we grant Dempsey’s motion for leave to proceed in forma
pauperis, we deny the mandamus petition. 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
