PER CURIAM:
Lamar Prilliman petitions for a writ of mandamus, alleging that the district court has
unduly delayed acting on his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 petition and his associated motion to
expedite proceedings and for immediate release. 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 granted in part and denied in part Prilliman’s § 2241 petition and denied his
motion to expedite proceedings and for immediate release by order entered June 8, 2026.
Accordingly, because the district court has recently decided Prilliman’s case, we deny the
mandamus petition as moot. 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
