UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS
FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT
No. 08-1475
In Re: WILLIAM ERNEST HOLLAND,
Petitioner.
On Petition for Writ of Mandamus.
(5:94-cr-00027-RLV-1)
Submitted: June 26, 2008 Decided: June 30, 2008
Before KING and DUNCAN, Circuit Judges, and WILKINS, Senior Circuit
Judge.
Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.
William Ernest Holland, Petitioner Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
William Ernest Holland petitions for a writ of mandamus,
alleging the district court has unduly delayed acting on his motion
for reduction of sentence. He seeks an order from this court
directing the district court to act. Although we find that
mandamus relief is not warranted because the delay is not
unreasonable, we deny the mandamus petition without prejudice to
the filing of another mandamus petition if the district court does
not act expeditiously. 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
