        PER CURIAM:

               Anthony Gene Trappier petitions for a writ of mandamus, alleging that the district

        court has unduly delayed acting on Trappier’s Fed. R. Civ. P. 60(b) motion to reopen his

        proceedings under 28 U.S.C. § 2255. Trappier seeks an order from this court directing the

        district court to act. Our review of the district court’s docket reveals that the court denied

        the Rule 60(b) motion by order entered on July 21, 2022. Accordingly, because the district

        court recently decided Trappier’s motion, 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

                                                      2
