    Mack Daniel Chisolm filed a petition for a writ of mandamus to direct the district court to act on his motion to correct his sentence under Rule 35(a) of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure. The Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals granted Chisolm's request to proceed in forma pauperis but denied the petition for writ of mandamus as moot since the district court had denied Chisolm's Rule 35(a) motion while the petition was pending.
