UNPUBLISHED UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT No. 17-1435 In re: GEORGE WASHINGTON CRANE, V, Petitioner. On Petition for Writ of Mandamus. (1:13-cr-00297-LO-1) Submitted: May 25, 2017 Before MOTZ, THACKER, and HARRIS, Circuit Judges. Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion. George Washington Crane, V, Petitioner Pro Se. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. Decided: May 31, 2017 PER CURIAM: George Washington Crane, V petitions for a writ of mandamus, alleging that the district court has unduly delayed in ruling on his 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) (2012) motion. 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 denied Crane’s motion on May 1, 2017. Accordingly, because the district court has recently decided Crane’s case, we deny the mandamus petition as moot. We grant leave to proceed in forma pauperis. 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
