PER CURIAM:
Gabriel Neal petitions for a writ of mandamus,
alleging the district court has unduly delayed acting on his 28
U.S.C. § 2255 (2012) motion. 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 entered an order
granting summary judgment in favor of Respondent on January 16,
2014. Accordingly, because the district court has recently
decided Neal’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
