Appeal: 14-1954 Doc: 9 Filed: 06/18/2015 Pg: 1 of 2
PER CURIAM:

William Haskins 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 magistrate judge recently 

entered a report and recommendation as to the disposition of 

Haskins’ motion and Haskins has filed objections thereto. 

Accordingly, because there has been recent action on Haskins’ 

§ 2255 motion, we deny the mandamus petition as moot. We grant 

leave to proceed in forma pauperis. 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
