UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS
FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT
No. 09-1303
In Re: DENNIS E. FORT,
Petitioner.
On Petition for Writ of Mandamus.
(5:08-hc-02166-H)
Submitted: May 29, 2009 Decided: June 9, 2009
Before WILKINSON, NIEMEYER, and MICHAEL, Circuit Judges.
Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Dennis E. Fort, Petitioner Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Dennis E. Fort petitions for a writ of mandamus,
alleging the district court has unduly delayed acting on his
writ of error coram nobis. 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 grant leave to proceed in forma
pauperis and deny the motion to expedite 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
