UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS
FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT
No. 12-2320
In re: MARCUS D. DUKES,
Petitioner.
On Petition for Writ of Mandamus. (8:03-cr-00133-RWT-1;
8:09-cv-00135-RWT)
Submitted: February 20, 2013 Decided: February 28, 2013
Before WILKINSON, NIEMEYER, and THACKER, Circuit Judges.
Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Marcus D. Dukes, Petitioner Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Marcus D. Dukes petitions for a writ of mandamus,
alleging the district court has unduly delayed acting on his
“Motion for Relief from Order and to Reopen Judgment Pursuant to
Rule 60(b).” He seeks an order from this court directing the
district court to act. The district court entered an order
denying Dukes’ motion on January 31, 2013. Accordingly, because
the district court has recently decided Dukes’ motion, 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
