UNPUBLISHED UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT No. 17-1752 In re: LAMAR KEITH GARVIN, Petitioner. On Petition for Writ of Mandamus (No. 3:13-cr-00141-JAG-1) Submitted: November 21, 2017 Decided: November 27, 2017 Before WYNN and THACKER, Circuit Judges, and HAMILTON, Senior Circuit Judge. Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion. Lamar Keith Garvin, Petitioner Pro Se. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM: Lamar Keith Garvin petitions for a writ of mandamus, alleging that the district court has unduly delayed in ruling on his 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (2012) motion. He seeks an order from this court directing the district court to act. We conclude that the present record does not reveal undue delay in the district court. Accordingly, although we grant leave to proceed in forma pauperis, we deny Garvin’s petition for a writ of mandamus. 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
