PER CURIAM:

Anthony Lee Belcher petitions for a writ of mandamus, 

alleging that the district court has unduly delayed in ruling on 

his motion to dismiss indictment, conviction and sentence, filed 

on February 27, 2014. He seeks an order from this court 

directing the district court to act. Our review of the district 

court’s docket sheet discloses that Belcher’s February 27, 2014 

motion was denied by the court on April 25, 2014. To the extent 

such motion was contrued as under 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (2012), the 

court dismissed it without prejudice. Accordingly, because the 

district court has already acted on all motions filed by Belcher 

on February 27, 2014, we deny the mandamus petition as moot. We

grant leave to proceed in forma pauperis and 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
