UNPUBLISHED
UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS
FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT
No. 07-6707
In Re: SHANNON SABB,
Petitioner.
On Petition for Writ of Mandamus. (9:06-cv-01943)
Submitted: October 24, 2007 Decided: November 6, 2007
Before WILKINSON, TRAXLER, and DUNCAN, Circuit Judges.
Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Shannon Sabb, Petitioner Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Shannon Sabb petitions for a writ of mandamus, alleging
that the magistrate judge has unduly delayed acting on his 28
U.S.C. § 2254 (2000) petition. He seeks an order from this court
directing the magistrate judge to act. Our review of the district
court docket report reveals that the magistrate judge has issued a
report and recommendation and that the district court has adopted
the magistrate judge’s recommendation and dismissed Sabb’s § 2254
petition. Accordingly, because Sabb has obtained the relief he
sought, we deny the mandamus petition as moot. We grant leave to
proceed in forma pauperis. 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
