UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS
FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT
No. 14-1877
In re: WILLIAM H. EVANS, JR.,
Petitioner.
On Petition for Writ of Mandamus.
(1:14-cv-01015-AJT-IDD)
Submitted: September 23, 2014 Decided: September 25, 2014
Before NIEMEYER and GREGORY, Circuit Judges, and HAMILTON,
Senior Circuit Judge.
Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.
William H. Evans, Jr., Petitioner Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
William H. Evans, Jr., petitions this court for a writ
of mandamus, seeking an order directing the district court to
file his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 (2012) petition. Our review of the
district court’s docket reveals that the district court entered
Evans’ petition on August 7, 2014. Accordingly, because Evans
has received the relief he seeks, we grant leave to proceed in
forma pauperis and deny the mandamus petition as moot. We
dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal
contentions are adequately presented in the materials before
this court and argument would not aid the decisional process.
PETITION DENIED
