Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit March 21, 2002, No. 01-3471, 01-3960 (Willis v. Brune)

PER CURIAM.

In these consolidated appeals, James Willis appeals from the district court’s1 orders denying his petition for a writ of mandamus and assessing a filing fee. Having reviewed the record, we conclude the court did not abuse its discretion in denying the petition, see Kerr v. United States Dist. Court, 426 U.S. 394, 403, 96 S.Ct. 2119, 48 L.Ed.
