UNPUBLISHED UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT No. 20-1152 In re: MICHAEL T. RAND, Petitioner. On Petition for Writ of Mandamus. (3:17-cv-00687-RJC; 3:10-cr-00182-RJC-DSC-1) Submitted: April 22, 2020 Decided: May 18, 2020 Before GREGORY, Chief Judge, and NIEMEYER and HARRIS, Circuit Judges. Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion. Michael T. Rand, Petitioner Pro Se. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM: Michael T. Rand petitions for a writ of mandamus, alleging that the district court has unduly delayed in ruling on his 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (2018) 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 dismissed Rand’s § 2255 motion on March 6, 2020. Accordingly, 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
