Opinion

No. 08-1857.

Submitted: December 16, 2008.

Decided: December 19, 2008.

On Petition for Writ of Mandamus. (5:08-hc-02079-D).

Rakim Royster, Petitioner Pro Se.

Before WILKINSON, MICHAEL, and KING, Circuit Judges.


Petition denied by unpublished PER CURIAM opinion.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.


Rakim Royster petitions for a writ of mandamus, alleging the district court has unduly delayed acting on his 28 U.S.C. § 2254 (2000) petition. He seeks an order from this court directing the district court to act. We find there has been no undue delay in the district court. Accordingly, although we grant leave to proceed in forma pauperis, we deny the mandamus petition. 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.
