Petitioner.

JCH; 7:19-cv-00455-EKD-JCH)
Submitted: March 23, 2020 Decided: April 7, 2020
Before WYNN and THACKER, Circuit Judges, and SHEDD, Senior Circuit Judge.
Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Raymond Edward Chestnut, Petitioner Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Raymond Edward Chestnut petitions for a writ of mandamus, alleging that the
district court has unduly delayed in acting on his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 (2018) petitions in
which he claimed he was denied due process during prison disciplinary proceedings where
he lost good time credits, impacting his release date. He seeks an order from this court
directing the district court to act. Our review of the district court’s docket in each case
reveals that the district court recently acted in each § 2241 proceeding. Furthermore,
Chestnut has been released from prison. Accordingly, we 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
