PER CURIAM:
Joshua Anderson petitions for a writ of mandamus, alleging that the district court
has unduly delayed ruling on his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 (2018) petition. He seeks an order from
this court directing the district court to act. Our review of the district court’s docket reveals
that the district court recently took significant action on Anderson’s habeas petition.
Accordingly, although 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 this court and argument would not aid the
decisional process.
PETITION DENIED
