In Re: Albert Burgess, Jr. v. ( 2015 )

UNPUBLISHED
UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS
FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT
No. 14-1899
In Re: ALBERT CHARLES BURGESS, JR.,
Petitioner.
On Petition for Writ of Mandamus.
(1:09-cr-00017-GCM-DLH-1)
Submitted: February 27, 2015 Decided: March 17, 2015
Before GREGORY, KEENAN, and WYNN, Circuit Judges.
Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Albert Charles Burgess, Jr., Petitioner Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Albert Charles Burgess, Jr., petitions for a writ of
mandamus, alleging that the district court has unduly delayed in
acting on his November 2012 motion filed under 28 U.S.C. § 2255
(2012), motions pending in the § 2255 action, and his October
2013 motion to recuse. He seeks an order from this court
directing the district court to act. Our review of the district
court’s docket reveals that the court denied the motion to
recuse on January 20, 2015, and denied the § 2255 motion and the
motions pending in that action on February 26, 2015.
Accordingly, because the district court has recently denied
Burgess’ motions, we grant leave to proceed in forma pauperis
and 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
