In Re: Vivek Shah v. ( 2017 )

UNPUBLISHED
UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS
FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT
No. 16-2171
In re: VIVEK SHAH,
Petitioner.
On Petition for Writ of Mandamus.
(No. 5:15-cv-07542)
Submitted: February 16, 2017 Decided: February 21, 2017
Before GREGORY, Chief Judge, DUNCAN, Circuit Judge, and
HAMILTON, Senior Circuit Judge.
Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Vivek Shah, Petitioner Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Vivek Shah petitions for a writ of mandamus, alleging that
the district court has unduly delayed in ruling on his 28 U.S.C.
§ 2255 (2012) motion. He seeks an order from this court
directing the district court to act. We conclude that the
present record does not reveal undue delay in the district
court. Accordingly, although we grant leave to proceed in forma
pauperis, we deny the mandamus petition. We grant Shah’s motion
to withdraw his amended petition. 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
