UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS
FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT
No. 04-7289
In Re: TERRY LEE ROSEBORO,
Petitioner.
On Petition for Writ of Mandamus. (CA-04-389-5)
Submitted: September 16, 2004 Decided: September 24, 2004
Before LUTTIG, KING, and DUNCAN, Circuit Judges.
Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Terry Lee Roseboro, Petitioner Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Terry Lee Roseboro petitions for writ of mandamus seeking
an order directing the district court to grant relief on his 28
U.S.C. § 2241 (2000) petition. Mandamus is a drastic remedy to be
used only in extraordinary circumstances. Kerr v. United States
Dist. Court, 426 U.S. 394, 402 (1976). In seeking mandamus relief,
Roseboro carries the heavy burden of showing that he has no other
adequate means to attain the relief sought and that his right to
such relief is clear and indisputable. In re First Fed. Sav. &
Loan Ass’n, 860 F.2d 135, 138 (4th Cir. 1988). We find that
Roseboro has failed to meet this burden. Accordingly, we deny the
mandamus 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
