In Re: Sean Mescall ( 2021 )

UNPUBLISHED UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT No. 21-2015 In re: SEAN F. MESCALL, Petitioner. On Petition for Writ of Mandamus. (3:12-cr-00215-RJC-1) Submitted: December 21, 2021 Decided: December 22, 2021 Before KING and QUATTLEBAUM, Circuit Judges, and TRAXLER, Senior Circuit Judge. Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion. Sean F. Mescall, Petitioner Pro Se. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM: Sean F. Mescall petitions for a writ of mandamus, alleging that the district court has unduly delayed acting on his motion for compassionate release. 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 Mescall’s motion for compassionate release on September 22, 2021. Accordingly, because the district court has recently ruled on Mescall’s motion, 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 2
