PER CURIAM:

Samuel Tijuan Jones petitions for a writ of mandamus,

alleging the district court has unduly delayed acting on his motion

seeking reduction of his sentence pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)

(2000). He seeks an order from this court directing the district

court to act. We find there has been no undue delay in the

district court. Accordingly, although we grant leave to proceed in

forma pauperis, we deny the mandamus petition. 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
