In re: JEFFREY BRIAN COHEN,
Petitioner.
On Petition for Writ of Mandamus. (1:14-cr-00310-GLR-1; 1:18-cv-02661-GLR)
Submitted: December 17, 2019 Decided: December 19, 2019
Before KING, FLOYD, and HARRIS, Circuit Judges.
Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Jeffrey Brian Cohen, Petitioner Pro Se. Harry Mason Gruber, OFFICE OF THE UNITED
STATES ATTORNEY, Baltimore, Maryland, for Respondent.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Jeffrey Brian Cohen petitions for a writ of mandamus, alleging that the district court
has unduly delayed in ruling on several motions filed in his pending 28 U.S.C. § 2255(2012) proceeding—specifically, his motion for summary judgment and motions for
judicial notice and a hearing pursuant to Fed. R. Evid. 201. He seeks an order from this
court directing the district court to act. We find the present record does not reveal undue
delay in the district court. Accordingly, we deny the mandamus 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
