    Anthony Grandison filed a petition for a writ of mandamus to challenge delay in the district court in ruling on his 28 U.S.C. § 2255 petition. The Fourth Circuit denied the mandamus petition as moot because the district court had dismissed Grandison's § 2255 petition. The Fourth Circuit also denied Grandison's request to proceed in forma pauperis and dispensed with oral argument.

    2d 251
    Unpublished Disposition

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


    unpublished dispositions is disfavored except for establishing
    res judicata, estoppel, or the law of the case and requires
    service of copies of cited unpublished dispositions of the Fourth
    Circuit.
    In re Anthony GRANDISON, Petitioner.
    No. 89-8037.

    United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.


    Submitted Dec. 20, 1989.
    Decided March 9, 1990.

    On Petition for Writ of Mandamus.


    Anthony Grandison, petitioner pro se.
    PETITION DENIED.
    Before RONALD RUSSELL and WILKINS, Circuit Judges, and
    BUTZNER, Senior Circuit Judge.
    PER CURIAM:

    Anthony Grandison, a federal prisoner, brought a petition for writ of mandamus


    challenging delay in the district court on his 28 U.S.C. Sec. 2255 petition. (CR
    No. 83-200-HM). The Sec. 2255 petition has been dismissed by the district
    court.

    Therefore, the mandamus petition is moot, and we deny leave to proceed in


    forma pauperis, and deny the petition. We dispense with oral argument because
    the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the material before
    the Court and argument would not significantly aid in the decisional process.
    PETITION DENIED
