UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS
FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT
No. 05-6680
In Re: KENT GRIFFIN,
Petitioner.
On Petition for Writ of Mandamus
Submitted: August 18, 2005 Decided: August 26, 2005
Before WIDENER, WILLIAMS, and MICHAEL, Circuit Judges.
Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Kent Griffin, Petitioner Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Kent Griffin petitions for writ of mandamus, requesting
an order requiring the district court to rule on his pending motion
under the All Writs Act. Our review of the district court docket
sheet reveals that the district court has recently denied Griffin’s
motion. Accordingly, because the district court has decided
Griffin’s case, we grant permission to proceed in forma pauperis
and 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
