    Lionell Elijah Ephraim filed a petition for a writ of mandamus alleging undue delay by the district court in ruling on his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 petitions. The Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals denied the petition, finding no undue delay based on the current record. While allowing Ephraim to proceed in forma pauperis, the court determined that oral arguments were not necessary because the facts and legal issues were adequately presented in the case materials.
