PER CURIAM:
Kim Leighton McBride 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
that the district court has denied relief on McBride’s § 2255 motion. United States v.
McBride, No. 3:17-cr-00132-JAG-EWH-1 (E.D. Va. Aug. 31, 2022). Accordingly,
because the district court has recently decided McBride’s case, we deny the mandamus
petition as moot. We deny McBride’s motion for release on bail and 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
