PER CURIAM:
Harvey P. Short petitions for a writ of mandamus,
alleging the district court has unduly delayed acting on two 42
U.S.C. § 1983 (2006) complaints. He seeks an order from this
court directing the district court to act. We find there has
been no 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 the court and argument would not aid the
decisional process.
PETITION DENIED
