PER CURIAM:

Michael Kenny Carter has filed a petition and supplemental petitions for a writ of
mandamus alleging that the district court has unduly delayed acting on his 28 U.S.C.
§ 2255 (2018) motion and on pending motions in that proceeding. He seeks an order from
this court directing the district court to act on his § 2255 motion and on the pending
motions. Our review of the district court’s docket reveals that the district court denied
Carter’s § 2255 motion on January 6, 2020, and has acted on the pending motions in that
proceeding. Accordingly, because Carter has obtained the relief he sought, we deny the
petition and supplemental petitions for a writ of mandamus 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
