Samuel Irvin White, Petitioner Pro Se.


Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:

     Samuel    Irvin   White     petitions    for    a   writ    of   mandamus,

alleging the district court has unduly delayed acting on his 28

U.S.C. § 2255 (2012) motion.        Our review of the district court’s

docket    reveals   that   the   district    court   entered     an   order   and

judgment on November 16, 2015, denying relief on White’s § 2255

motion.     Accordingly, because the district court has recently

decided White’s case, we deny the mandamus petition as moot.                  We

grant leave to proceed in forma pauperis.            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
