In re: Roberto Darden

UNPUBLISHED UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT No. 19-1345 In re: ROBERTO ANTOINE DARDEN, a/k/a Dizz-e, a/k/a Javon, Petitioner. On Petition for Writ of Mandamus. (4:11-cr-00052-AWA-LRL-1) Submitted: May 16, 2019 Decided: May 20, 2019 Before DIAZ and THACKER, Circuit Judges, and HAMILTON, Senior Circuit Judge. Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion. Roberto Antoine Darden, Petitioner Pro Se. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM: Roberto Antoine Darden petitions for a writ of mandamus, alleging that the district court has unduly delayed action on his 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (2012) motion. He seeks an order from this court directing the district court to act. Our review of the district court’s docket reveals that the district court ruled on Darden’s § 2255 motion in April 2019. Accordingly, although we grant leave to proceed in forma pauperis, we deny the petition for writ of mandamus 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 2
