UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS
FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT
No. 09-1850
In Re: VICTOR WARDELL WRIGHT,
Petitioner.
On Petition for Writ of Mandamus.
(8:07-cv-02830-DKC; 8:06-cr-00038-DKC-1)
Submitted: October 8, 2009 Decided: October 27, 2009
Before NIEMEYER, GREGORY, and DUNCAN, Circuit Judges.
Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Victor Wardell Wright, Petitioner Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Victor Wardell Wright petitions for a writ of
mandamus, alleging the district court has unduly delayed acting
on his motion for leave to conduct discovery. He seeks an order
from this court directing the district court to act. Our review
of the docket reflects that after seeking and receiving several
extensions of time, the government filed a response to Wright’s
motion on June 4, 2009, and Wright replied later that month. On
these facts, we conclude there has been no undue delay in the
district court. Accordingly, although we grant leave to proceed
in forma pauperis, we 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
