PER CURIAM:

David A. Stebbins, who has two civil actions pending in the 

district court, petitions for a writ of mandamus alleging the 

district court has unduly delayed acting on a summary judgment 

motion pending in one of the actions, and that it has delayed 

ruling on a motion for joinder of parties pending in the other 

civil action. He seeks an order from this court directing the 

district court to act. Our review of the district court’s 

dockets reveals that the district court granted the summary 

judgment motion and denied Stebbins’ motion for joinder. 

Accordingly, although we grant leave to proceed in forma 

pauperis, 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
