PER CURIAM:

Vivek Shah petitions for a writ of mandamus, alleging that 

the district court has unduly delayed in ruling on his 28 U.S.C. 

§ 2255 (2012) motion. He seeks an order from this court 

directing the district court to act. We conclude that the 

present record does not reveal 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 this court and argument would 

not aid the decisional process.

PETITION DENIED
