PER CURIAM:

Larry Max McDaniel 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 recently 

issued an order directing McDaniel to file a corrected § 2255 

motion. Accordingly, because the district court has recently 

acted in this case, 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
