UNPUBLISHED UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT No. 06-6989 In Re: KELVIN ANDRE SPOTTS, Petitioner. On Petition for Writ of Mandamus. (3:06-cv-00109) Submitted: July 17, 2006 Decided: August 28, 2006 Before NIEMEYER and TRAXLER, Circuit Judges, and HAMILTON, Senior Circuit Judge. Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion. Kelvin Andre Spotts, Petitioner Pro Se. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. See Local Rule 36(c). PER CURIAM: Kelvin Andre Spotts filed a petition for writ of mandamus alleging undue delay by the district court in directing a response from the United States to Spotts 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (2000) motion. The district court issued its final order in the case on May 24, 2006. Accordingly, the mandamus petition is now moot. Therefore, although we grant the motion to proceed in forma pauperis, we deny the petition for mandamus relief. 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. The motion to expedite consideration of the petition is denied as moot. PETITION DENIED - 2 -
