PER CURIAM:
William Douglas Hampton petitions for a writ of mandamus,
alleging that the district court has failed to comply with this
court’s mandate to transfer several motions to the docket of his
pending declaratory judgment action. 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 has
complied with the directions of our mandate. See Hampton v.
Fed. Corr. Complex Petersburg, No. 1:15-cv-00318-CMH-TCB (E.D.
Va. Apr. 6, 2016). Accordingly, because the district court has
already taken the action Hampton requests, we deny the mandamus
petition as moot. 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
