In re: DELMAR E. WALTON, Petitioner. UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Respondent.

Delmar E. Walton, Petitioner Pro Se.


UNPUBLISHED

Submitted: August 18, 2022

On Petition for Writ of Mandamus. (5:94-cr-00066-JPB-2)

Delmar E. Walton, Petitioner Pro Se.

Before WYNN, THACKER, and HEYTENS, Circuit Judges.

Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

PER CURIAM:

Delmar E. Walton filed a petition for a writ of mandamus alleging that the district court has unduly delayed acting on his pending motions. He seeks an order from this court directing the district court to act. Our review of the district court's docket reveals that, in March 2021, the district court granted Walton's motions for appointment of counsel and for production of documents, and, in June 2021, the district court denied Walton's motion for compassionate release. Accordingly, because Walton has no outstanding motions pending in the district court, we deny the mandamus petition as moot. 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
