    Richard Fowler filed a petition for a writ of mandamus against undue delay in the district court ruling on his motion for reduction of sentence. The district court ruled on Fowler's motion on October 22, 2002, after he filed the mandamus petition. As the district court has now ruled on the motion, the appeals court found the mandamus petition to be moot. The court therefore denied the petition for mandamus relief without oral argument.

    UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS


    FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

    No. 02-6801

    In Re:

    RICHARD S. FOWLER,
    Petitioner.

    On Petition for Writ of Mandamus.

    Submitted:

    January 16, 2003

    (CR-94-216)

    Decided:

    February 3, 2003

    Before WILKINS, LUTTIG, and MOTZ, Circuit Judges.

    Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.

    Richard S. Fowler, Petitioner Pro Se.

    Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.


    See Local Rule 36(c).

    PER CURIAM:
    Richard S. Fowler filed a petition for a writ of mandamus
    alleging undue delay in the district court.

    Fowler filed a motion

    for reduction of sentence in the district court on March 21, 2001.


    The district court ruled on the motion on October 22, 2002, after
    Fowler filed the mandamus petition.
    petition is now moot.

    Accordingly, the mandamus

    We therefore deny the petition for mandamus

    relief. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal
    contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the
    court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

    PETITION DENIED
