UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS
FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT
No. 09-1365
In Re: CHRISTOPHER LEE NEAL,
Petitioner.
On Petition for Writ of Mandamus.
(2:94-cr-00300-JAB-2; 1:08-cv-00458-JAB-WWD)
Submitted: July 21, 2009 Decided: August 5, 2009
Before MICHAEL, MOTZ, and SHEDD, Circuit Judges.
Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Christopher Lee Neal, Petitioner Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Christopher Lee Neal petitions for a writ of mandamus,
alleging the district court has unduly delayed acting on his
habeas petition. He seeks an order from this court directing
the district court to act. We find there has been no undue
delay in the district court. Accordingly, although we grant
leave to proceed in forma pauperis, we deny as moot the motion
to expedite and deny the mandamus petition. 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
