    Daniel Brown filed a petition for a writ of mandamus alleging unreasonable delay by the district court in ruling on his 28 U.S.C. § 2254 petition and motion to alter or amend judgment. The appeals court reviewed the district court docket and found that a final order was entered on October 20, 2015, denying Brown's § 2254 petition and motion. As a result, the appeals court denied Brown's mandamus petition as moot since the district court had already ruled on the case.

    UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS


    FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

    No. 15-2162

    In re: DANIEL BROWN, a/k/a Daniel M. Brown,


    Petitioner.

    On Petition for Writ of Mandamus.


    (4:14-cv-03659-BHH)

    Submitted:

    February 23, 2016

    Decided:

    February 25, 2016

    Before MOTZ and GREGORY, Circuit Judges, and HAMILTON, Senior


    Circuit Judge.

    Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.

    Daniel Brown, Petitioner Pro Se.

    Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

    PER CURIAM:
    Daniel Brown petitions for a writ of mandamus, alleging
    unreasonable delay by the district court and seeking an order
    directing the district court to act.

    Our review of the district

    courts docket sheet discloses that a final order was entered on


    October 20, 2015, denying relief on Browns 28 U.S.C. 2254
    (2012) petition and his motion to alter or amend the judgment.
    Accordingly, we grant leave to proceed in forma pauperis and
    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
