    In Re: George H. VAN WAGNER, III, Petitioner.
    No. 92-8062.

    United States Court of Appeals,


    Fourth Circuit.
    Submitted: October 26, 1992
    Decided: November 18, 1992

    On Petition for Writ of Mandamus.


    George H. Van Wagner, III, Petitioner Pro Se.
    PETITION DENIED.
    Before ERVIN, Chief Judge, and RUSSELL and WIDENER, Circuit
    Judges.
    PER CURIAM:

    George Van Wagner petitions this Court for a Writ of Mandamus, alleging a
    delay by the district court in acting on his 28 U.S.C. 2255 (1988) motion. The
    district court recently dismissed Van Wagner's 2255 motion. As a result, this
    mandamus petition is moot. Accordingly, we deny Van Wagner's petition for
    Writ of Mandamus and grant in forma pauperis status. 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
