Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Herman Lee Tate, Appellant Pro Se. Brian Steven Cromwell, OFFICE
OF THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Charlotte, North Carolina, for
Appellee.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Herman Lee Tate appeals the district court’s order denying his
petition for a writ of mandamus. We have reviewed the record and
find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning
of the district court. See United States v. Tate, No. CR-98-125-9-
V (W.D.N.C. filed Sept. 25, 2002; entered Oct. 2, 2002). 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.
AFFIRMED
