OPINION
PER CURIAM:

1
Dennis Williams petitions this Court for mandamus relief.  He alleges that the district court has failed to act on his Fed.R.Civ.P. 60 motion in a reasonable time.  We deny the petition.

2
The district court docket reveals that the court has acted on Williams's motion.  The docket reveals that Williams's motion was never filed in the district court.  However, the district court acted on the motion when it received a copy of the mandamus petition, which included the motion.  The court denied the motion on October 18, 1993.  Thus, Williams's request for mandamus relief is moot:  he has received the relief he requests.  Therefore, although we grant Williams in forma pauperis status, we deny his petition.

3
PETITION DENIED.
