PER CURIAM:
Bernard

Middleton

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 on February 24,
2015, the district court ruled on Middleton’s motion to amend a
district court judgment.

Accordingly, we grant leave to proceed

in forma pauperis and deny the mandamus petition as moot.
dispense

with

contentions

oral

argument

adequately

because

presented

in

the
the

facts

We

and

legal

materials

before

this court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

PETITION DENIED
