PER CURIAM:
Arthur Jones, Jr., petitions for a writ of mandamus, alleging that the district court
has unduly delayed acting on his motion to reopen the appeal period. 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 granted the motion on April 29, 2024. Accordingly, because
the district court has recently decided Jones’ 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
