    In re: James Charles SLADE, Petitioner.
    No. 96-500.

    United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.


    Submitted: Feb. 7, 1996
    Decided: Feb. 29, 1996

    James Charles Slade, Petitioner Pro Se.


    PETITION DENIED.
    Before MURNAGHAN and WILLIAMS, Circuit Judges, and PHILLIPS,
    Senior Circuit Judge.
    PER CURIAM:

    James Charles Slade brought this mandamus petition seeking an order directing
    the district court to order the United States to respond to his 28 U.S.C. 2255
    (1988) motion. The district court has recently directed a response. Therefore,
    the complaint of delay in the district court is moot. Accordingly, while we
    grant leave to proceed in forma pauperis, we deny the mandamus 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
    significantly aid in the decisional process.
