On Petition for Writ of Mandamus. (1:85-cr-00547-DKC-1)

Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Maurice Cortez Proctor, Sr., Petitioner Pro Se. Jason Daniel Medinger, Assistant United
States Attorney, OFFICE OF THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Baltimore, Maryland,
for Respondent.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Maurice Cortez Proctor, Sr., petitions for a writ of mandamus, alleging that the
district court has unduly delayed in ruling on his 28 U.S.C. § 2255 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 recently took significant action on Proctor’s § 2255
motion. Accordingly, we deny the mandamus petition. We deny Proctor’s motion for
immediate consideration and 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
