437 F. App'x 262 (4th Cir. 2011)

Opinion

No. 11-1528.

Submitted: June 30, 2011.

Decided: July 5, 2011.

On Petition for Writ of Mandamus (1:04-cr-00564-CCB-4).

Before WILKINSON, DUNCAN, and WYNN, Circuit Judges.

Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.

James Dana Sweets, Petitioner Pro Se.


Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.


James Sweets petitions for a writ of mandamus, alleging the district court has unduly delayed acting on his Motion for Order Directing Discharged Counsel to Return Defendant's Files and Records. 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 denied Sweets' motion on May 13, 2011. Accordingly, because the district court has recently decided Sweets' case, 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 the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

PETITION DENIED
