PER CURIAM:
Leland Fortney petitions for a writ of mandamus, alleging
the district court has unduly delayed acting on his 28 U.S.C.
§ 2241 (2000) petition. 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 issued an order
adopting the magistrate judge’s report and recommendations.
Fortney v. Yancey, No. 2:05-cv-2168-RBH (D.S.C. Apr. 20, 2007).
Accordingly, because the district court has recently decided
Fortney’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 the court and argument would not aid the
decisional process.
PETITION DENIED
