PER CURIAM:
Daniel Brown petitions for a writ of mandamus, alleging
unreasonable delay by the district court and seeking an order
directing the district court to act. Our review of the district
court’s docket sheet discloses that a final order was entered on
October 20, 2015, denying relief on Brown’s 28 U.S.C. § 2254
(2012) petition and his motion to alter or amend the judgment.
Accordingly, we grant leave to proceed in forma pauperis and
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
