UNPUBLISHED
UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS
FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT
No. 02-6179
In Re: LAWRENCE E. GRIFFIN,
Petitioner.
Petition for Writ of Mandamus. (CA-01-1011-AM)
Submitted: May 16, 2002 Decided: May 23, 2002
Before NIEMEYER, MICHAEL, and MOTZ, Circuit Judges.
Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Lawrence E. Griffin, Petitioner Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Lawrence E. Griffin petitions for a writ of mandamus, seeking
a coram nobis hearing challenging his 1981 conviction in the
District of Columbia court system. This court does not have
jurisdiction to review District of Columbia cases or cases in other
federal circuits. See District of Columbia Court of Appeals v.
Feldman, 460 U.S. 462, 482 (1983); Gurley v. Superior Court of
Mecklenburg County, 411 F.2d 586, 587 (4th Cir. 1969). Because we
do not have jurisdiction to grant the requested relief, we deny the
petition. 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.
PETITION DENIED
