UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS
FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT
No. 97-710
In Re: ROBERT GLENN ROBERTSON, a/k/a K.O.,
Petitioner.
On Petition for Writ of Mandamus. (CR-93-44)
Submitted: October 14, 1997 Decided: November 25, 1997
Before MURNAGHAN, LUTTIG, and MICHAEL, Circuit Judges.
Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Robert Glenn Robertson, Petitioner Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Robert Glenn Robertson filed this mandamus petition seeking an
order from this court compelling the district court to act on his
28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 (West 1994 & Supp. 1997) motion. Because there
has been significant action in his case in the district court as
recently as September 10, 1997, we conclude that Robertson's peti-
tion is moot. Accordingly, although we grant leave to proceed in
forma pauperis, we deny the petition for a writ of mandamus. We
dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions
are adequately presented in the materials before the court and
argument would not aid the decisional process.
PETITION DENIED
