UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS
Filed 4/25/96
TENTH CIRCUIT
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
Plaintiff-Appellee,
vs. No. 95-4149
(D.C. No. 94-CV-656)
RONALD LARRY MILLER, (D. Utah)
Defendant-Appellant.
ORDER AND JUDGMENT*
Before PORFILIO, McKAY, and KELLY, Circuit Judges.**
Mr. Miller appeals from the denial of his petition for writ of error coram nobis.
28 U.S.C. § 1651(a). The petition is a collateral attack upon several bank robbery
convictions entered upon a guilty plea in the District of Utah in 1969. In 1992, Mr. Miller
was convicted in the Western District of Missouri of being a felon in possession of a
firearm, and the bank robbery convictions were used to enhance his sentence, 18 U.S.C.
*
This order and judgment is not binding precedent, except under the doctrines of
law of the case, res judicata, and collateral estoppel. This court generally disfavors the
citation of orders and judgments; nevertheless, an order and judgment may be cited under
the terms and conditions of 10th Cir. R. 36.3.
**
After examining the briefs and the appellate record, this three-judge panel has
determined unanimously that oral argument would not be of material assistance in the
determination of this appeal. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a); 10th Cir. R. 34.1.9. The cause is
therefore ordered submitted without oral argument.
§§ 922(g) & (e). See United States v. Miller, 20 F.3d 926, 932 (8th Cir.), cert. denied,
115 S. Ct. 226 (1994). Mr. Miller’s basic contention that the 1969 plea was invalid has
been rejected by this court as well as the Eighth Circuit. See Id. at 932-33; Miller v.
United States, No. 75-1698, unpub. op. (10th Cir. Sept. 1, 1976) (affirming denial of §
2255 relief). We remain unpersuaded; “coram nobis relief is not available to litigate
issues already litigated.” Klein v. United States, 880 F.2d 250, 254 n.1 (10th Cir. 1989).
Mr. Miller has in no way demonstrated the compelling circumstances necessary for
issuance of the writ. See United States v. Morgan, 346 U.S. 502, 511 (1954).
AFFIRMED. The mandate shall issue forthwith.
