UNPUBLISHED
UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS
FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT
No. 06-7949
In Re: ROBERT A. ZANDER,
Petitioner.
On Petition for Writ of Mandamus.
(5:06-cv-00098-F)
Submitted: December 21, 2006 Decided: January 5, 2007
Before NIEMEYER, WILLIAMS, and KING, Circuit Judges.
Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Robert A. Zander, Petitioner Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Robert A. Zander petitions for writ of mandamus, alleging
the district court has unduly delayed acting on his 28 U.S.C.
§ 2255 (2000) motion. He seeks an order from this court directing
the district court to act. Our review of the docket sheet reveals
that the district court denied Zander’s 28 U.S.C. § 2255 motion on
December 15, 2006. Accordingly, while we grant Zander’s request to
proceed in forma pauperis, 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
