    UNPUBLISHED

    UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS


    FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

    No. 07-6007

    In Re:

    JIMMY BOWMAN,
    Petitioner.

    On Petition for Writ of Mandamus.


    (3:04-cr-00211-REP; 3:05-cv-00538-REP)

    Submitted:

    May 31, 2007

    Decided:

    June 6, 2007

    Before WILKINSON, TRAXLER, and GREGORY, Circuit Judges.

    Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.

    Jimmy Bowman, Petitioner Pro Se.

    Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

    PER CURIAM:
    Jimmy Bowman filed a petition for a writ of mandamus and
    an

    amended

    mandamus

    petition

    seeking

    an

    order

    directing

    the

    district court to rule on his motion seeking reconsideration of a


    nondispositive order in his 28 U.S.C. 2255 (2000) proceeding and
    to act on his 2255 motion.

    He also asks this court to direct the

    district court to order the government to arrange transcription of


    a suppression hearing. Our review of the docket sheet reveals that
    the transcript has been prepared and that the district court has
    entered final judgment in the 2255 proceeding. Accordingly,
    although we grant Bowman leave to proceed in forma pauperis, we
    deny the mandamus petition as moot.

    Bowmans motion for judicial

    notice is denied. We dispense with oral argument because the facts


    and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials
    before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

    PETITION DENIED
