    Kedric Lamar Whitmore filed a petition for a writ of mandamus alleging undue delay in the district court ruling on his habeas corpus petition. The district court ruled on Whitmore's §2254 petition on July 31, 2002, after Whitmore filed the mandamus petition. As a result, the court found the mandamus petition was now moot since the district court had ruled. The court therefore denied the petition for mandamus relief.

    UNPUBLISHED

    UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS


    FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

    No. 02-7056

    In Re: KEDRIC LAMAR WHITMORE,


    Petitioner.

    On Petition for Writ of Mandamus.

    Submitted:

    November 5, 2002

    (CA-01-4407-3-24BC)

    Decided:

    December 16, 2002

    Before WILLIAMS, KING, and GREGORY, Circuit Judges.

    Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.

    Kedric Lamar Whitmore, Petitioner Pro Se.

    Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.


    See Local Rule 36(c).

    PER CURIAM:
    Kedric Lamar Whitmore filed a petition for a writ of mandamus
    alleging undue delay in the district court. Whitmore filed a habeas
    corpus petition in the district court, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 2254
    (2000), on November 29, 2001.

    The district court ruled on the

    2254 petition on July 31, 2002, after Whitmore filed the mandamus
    petition.

    Accordingly, the mandamus petition is now moot.

    We

    therefore deny the petition for mandamus relief.


    We grant Whitmores motion to proceed in forma pauperis.

    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
