IN RE: Terry Jackson BENNETT, Petitioner.
    No. 18-1158
    United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.
    Submitted: March 8, 2018
    Decided: March 14, 2018
    Terry Jackson Bennett, Petitioner Pro Se.
    Before GREGORY, Chief Judge, and KING and HARRIS, Circuit Judges.
   Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

PER CURIAM:

Terry Jackson Bennett 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 has dismissed Bennett’s § 2255 motion. Accordingly, because the district court has recently decided Bennett’s case, 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
