In Re: Billy Lunsford v.

UNPUBLISHED
UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS
FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT
No. 15-2126
In re: BILLY E. LUNSFORD, a/k/a Peg-leg,
Petitioner.
On Petition for Writ of Mandamus. (2:10-cr-00182-1)
Submitted: January 14, 2016 Decided: January 19, 2016
Before AGEE, WYNN, and FLOYD, Circuit Judges.
Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Billy E. Lunsford, Petitioner Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Billy E. Lunsford petitions for a writ of mandamus, alleging
the district court has unduly delayed acting on his 28 U.S.C.
§ 2255 (2012) motion. 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 Lunsford’s motion on
December 4, 2015. Accordingly, because the district court has
recently decided Lunsford’s case, we deny the mandamus petition as
moot. We grant leave to proceed in forma pauperis. 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
