UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS
FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT
No. 04-7246
In Re: COLIN E. COTA,
Petitioner.
On Petition for Writ of Mandamus
(CA-03-782)
Submitted: November 4, 2004 Decided: November 10, 2004
Before WILKINSON, MOTZ, and DUNCAN, Circuit Judges.
Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Colin E. Cota, Petitioner Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Colin E. Cota petitions for writ of mandamus, alleging
the district court has unduly delayed acting on his 42 U.S.C.
§ 1983 (2000) complaint. 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
leave to proceed in forma pauperis, we deny the petition for 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
