PER CURIAM:
Douglas Gerrelle Pittman petitions for a writ of mandamus, alleging that the district
court has unduly delayed acting on his 28 U.S.C. § 2255 motion. He seeks an order from
this court directing the district court to act. Our review of the district court’s docket reveals
recent significant action on Pittman’s § 2255 motion specifically, the magistrate judge
issued an order and recommendation. Accordingly, 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
