    William Longenette filed a mandamus petition seeking an order to compel the district court to act on a motion regarding interrogatories in his civil rights case. The Fourth Circuit denied the petition, finding that the district court's last action on the case was in September 1993, and therefore there had not been undue delay that would warrant mandamus relief. The court denied the petition and dispensed with oral argument.

    NOTICE: Fourth Circuit I.O.P. 36.6 states that citation of

    In re William D. LONGENETTE, Petitioner.
    No. 93-8062.

    United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.


    Submitted Oct. 25, 1993.
    Decided Nov. 19, 1993.

    On Petition for Writ of Mandamus.


    William D. Longenette, pro se.
    PETITION DENIED.
    Before ERVIN, Chief Judge, and PHILLIPS and WILKINSON, Circuit
    Judges.
    OPINION
    PER CURIAM:

    William D. Longenette brought this mandamus petition seeking an order


    directing the district court to act on Longenette's "Notice and Motion to Compel
    Accurate Response to Inteerrogatory [sic], Per Civ.R. 33 and 37(a)(2),"
    currently pending in his 42 U.S.C. Sec. 1983 (1988) action. The district court's
    last significant action in Longenette's Sec. 1983 action was in September 1993.
    Because there has not been undue delay in the district court, mandamus relief is
    not warranted. Accordingly, although we grant permission to proceed in forma
    pauperis, we deny the petition. 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.
