On Petition for Writ of Mandamus.
(CA-93-932-L, CA-94-2295-MJG)
Submitted: May 7, 1996 Decided: June 4, 1996
Before WILKINS and NIEMEYER, Circuit Judges, and BUTZNER, Senior
Circuit Judge.

James Otis Kelley, Petitioner Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Petitioner has filed a petition for a writ of mandamus and a
writ of prohibition seeking to compel an unnamed bailee to perform
in accordance with bailment proceedings stemming from this court's
decisions in In re Kelley, No. 95-8058 (4th Cir. Oct. 13, 1995)
(unpublished) and In re Kelley, No. 95-8070 (4th Cir. Jan. 25,
1996) (unpublished). Our review of these cases reveals them to be
denials of earlier petitions seeking both writs of mandamus and
prohibition relating to an earlier 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (1988) case
dismissed by a Maryland district court and affirmed by this court
on appeal. Accordingly, because we find no factual basis to support
Petitioner's request, we grant Petitioner leave to proceed in forma
pauperis but deny his petition for a writ of mandamus and prohibi-
tion. Given this disposition, we also deny his motion for subpoenas
to obtain information relating to his petition. We dispense with
oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequate-
ly presented in the materials before the Court and argument would
not aid the decisional process.
PETITION DENIED
