    In re Willis G. FINNEY, Petitioner.
    No. 89-8030.

    United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.


    Submitted Sept. 22, 1989.
    Decided Nov. 3, 1989.

    Willis G. Finney, petitioner pro se.


    Before WIDENER, PHILLIPS, and WILKINSON, Circuit Judges.
    PER CURIAM:

    Willis G. Finney, a District of Columbia prisoner incarcerated at the Federal


    Correctional Institution in Petersburg, Virginia, has petitioned this Court for a
    writ of mandamus. He complains of the district court's delay in ruling on his
    habeas corpus petition. Based on our review of the district court's actions in this
    case, we find that there has been no undue delay which would warrant our
    intervention at this time. We therefore deny the petition. Leave to proceed in
    forma pauperis is granted.

    PETITION DENIED.
