PER CURIAM:

Jonathan Eugene Brunson petitions for a writ of mandamus, alleging that the district 

court has unduly delayed acting on the magistrate judge’s recommendation to dismiss 

Brunson’s complaint. 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 adopted the 

magistrate judge’s recommendation on January 31, 2020. Accordingly, because the district 

court has recently decided Brunson’s case, we deny the mandamus petition as moot. 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
