Decided: April 6, 2018

Appeal: 17-2316

Doc: 7

Pg: 2 of 2

PER CURIAM:
Randy E. Self 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 issued an order granting § 2255 relief on December 15,
2017. Accordingly, because the district court has recently decided Self’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
