PER CURIAM:
Danny R. Jacobs petitions for a writ of mandamus, alleging that the district court
has unduly delayed in ruling on his 28 U.S.C. § 2254 (2012) petition. He seeks an order
from this court directing the district court to act. We find the present record does not
reveal undue delay in the district court. Accordingly, we grant leave to proceed in forma
pauperis and 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
