PER CURIAM:
Jose Delores Vanegas petitions for a writ of mandamus, alleging that the district
court has unduly delayed acting on his 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (2018) motion and his motions
for a hearing, to expedite, and for return of property. He seeks an order from this court
directing the district court to act. Our review of the district court’s docket reveals that on
March 23, 2020, the district court denied Vanegas’ § 2255 motion and his motions to
expedite and for a hearing, and on April 17, 2020, granted his motion for return of property.
Accordingly, because the district court has recently addressed Vanegas’ motions, 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
