UNPUBLISHED
UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS
FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT
No. 07-6086
In Re: MIGUEL QUINONES,
Petitioner.
On Petition for Writ of Mandamus.
(5:06-cv-00072)
Submitted: May 31, 2007 Decided: June 19, 2007
Before NIEMEYER, KING, and DUNCAN, Circuit Judges.
Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Miguel Quinones, Petitioner Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Miguel Quinones has filed a petition for writ of mandamus
in which he alleges that the district court has unduly delayed
acting on his 28 U.S.C. § 2254 (2000) petition. Quinones asks this
court to issue an order directing the district court to order the
Respondent to answer his petition. The district court’s docket
report reveals that after Quinones filed his writ of mandamus, the
Respondent answered Quinones’s petition. Because Quinones has
received the relief he sought, we grant leave to proceed in forma
pauperis but deny Quinones’s mandamus petition as moot. 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
