PER CURIAM:
David Cain, Jr., petitions for a writ of mandamus, alleging that the district court has
unduly delayed in acting on his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 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 denied Cain’s § 2241 petition shortly after he filed this mandamus
petition. Accordingly, because the district court has recently decided Cain’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
