PER CURIAM:
Robert

Saunders

petitions

for

a

writ

of

mandamus,

alleging the district court has unduly delayed acting on his
motion to reduce his sentence.

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 denied
Saunders’ motion on November 23, 2015.

Accordingly, because the

district court has recently decided Saunders’ case, we deny the
mandamus petition as moot.
