Opinion:
PER CURIAM:
Arthur Lee Hairston, Sr., filed a petition for writ of mandamus seeking an order requiring the district court to process his notice of appeal. However, the appeal in question is proceeding and is currently pending in this court. Accordingly, although we grant permission 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 the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.
PETITION DENIED
