PER CURIAM:
In No. 08-6074, William Henry Coleman appeals the
district court’s orders denying his petition for a writ of audita
querela and denying his subsequent motion for reconsideration. We
have reviewed the record and find no reversible error.
Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district
court. United States v. Coleman, Nos. 3:96-cr-00010-TWB-1; 3:07-
cv-00346-GCM (W.D.N.C. Dec. 10, 2007 & Jan. 2, 2008).
In No. 08-1012, which has been consolidated with the above
case, Coleman petitions for a writ of mandamus, alleging the
district court has unduly delayed acting on his petition for a writ
of audita querela. He seeks an order from this court directing the
district court to act. Because the district court recently denied
Coleman’s petition, 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.
No. 08-1012 PETITION DENIED
No. 08-6074 AFFIRMED
