        PER CURIAM:

               Larry Davis petitions for a writ of mandamus, alleging that the district court has

        unduly delayed acting on his 28 U.S.C. § 2254 petition. 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 has now ruled on Davis’ § 2254 petition. Davis v. Bishop, No. 1:17-cv-

        03002-CCB (D. Md. filed June 27, 2022 & entered June 28, 2022). Accordingly, because

        the district court has recently decided Davis’ 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

                                                      2
