In Re: Samuel Jacobs v. ( 2017 )

UNPUBLISHED
UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS
FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT
No. 16-2319
In re: SAMUEL B. JACOBS,
Petitioner.
On Petition for Writ of Mandamus. (4:10-cr-00149-MSD-TEM-1;
4:15-cv-00056-MSD)
Submitted: January 17, 2017 Decided: January 19, 2017
Before NIEMEYER, TRAXLER, and KING, Circuit Judges.
Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Samuel B. Jacobs, Petitioner Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Samuel B. Jacobs petitions for a writ of mandamus, alleging
the district court has unduly delayed acting on his 28 U.S.C.
§ 2255 (2012) motion. He seeks an order from this court
directing the district court to act. Our review of the district
court’s docket reveals that the district court denied the § 2255
motion on December 6, 2016. Accordingly, because the district
court has recently decided Jacobs’ motion, we 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
