PER CURIAM:
Gary Darnell Williams petitions for a writ of
mandamus, alleging the district court has unduly delayed acting
on his motion filed pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (2012). 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 ruled on Williams’ § 2255 motion by order entered
August 5, 2014. Accordingly, because the district court has
recently decided Williams’ 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
