UNPUBLISHED
UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS
FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT
No. 04-7834
IN RE: LARRY LAMONT COLLINS,
Petitioner.
On Petition for Writ of Mandamus.
(CR-00-50)
Submitted: March 24, 2005 Decided: March 30, 2005
Before WIDENER and GREGORY, Circuit Judges, and HAMILTON, Senior
Circuit Judge.
Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Larry Lamont Collins, Petitioner Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Larry Lamont Collins filed a petition for writ of
mandamus alleging delay in the district court’s ruling on motions
for transcripts and other trial documents. Collins filed his
mandamus petition on November 15, 2004, and amended it on
January 18, 2005. The district court ruled on the pending motions
on February 2, 2005, thus rendering this mandamus petition moot.
Therefore, although we grant Collins’s motion to proceed in forma
pauperis, we deny the petition for mandamus relief. 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
