UNPUBLISHED
UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS
FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT
No. 18-1089
In re: MICHAEL PAUL PUZEY, a/k/a Big Pete,
Petitioner.
On Petition for Writ of Mandamus.
(3:00-cr-00057-GMG-RWT-16; 3:17-cv-00128-GMG-RWT; 3:17-cv-129-GMG-RWT)
Submitted: April 17, 2018 Decided: April 20, 2018
Before WILKINSON and KEENAN, Circuit Judges, and HAMILTON, Senior Circuit
Judge.
Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Michael Paul Puzey, Petitioner Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Michael Paul Puzey petitions for a writ of mandamus, alleging that the district
court has unduly delayed in ruling on his 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (2012) motion. He seeks an
order from this court directing the district court to act. We find the present record does
not reveal undue delay in the district court. Accordingly, we grant leave to proceed in
forma pauperis and deny Puzey’s mandamus petition and his motion to expedite. 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
