PER CURIAM:
Jerry Lewis Dedrick petitions for a writ of mandamus,
alleging the district court has unduly delayed in ruling on his
28 U.S.C. § 2241 (2012) 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
dismissed the petition by order of July 17, 2014. Accordingly,
because the district court has recently decided Lewis’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
