PER CURIAM:
Kenneth Wayne Watford petitions for a writ of mandamus, alleging that the district
court has unduly delayed acting on his motion to dismiss the petition alleging Watford
violated the conditions of his supervised release. 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 dismissed Watford’s motion as untimely on February 21, 2025. Accordingly,
we deny Watford’s motion for bail or release and, because the district court has recently
decided Watford’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
