Opinion

UNPUBLISHED UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

No. 98-7656

In Re: ROBERT CALVIN CRAIG, JR., Petitioner.

On Petition for Writ of Error Coram Nobis. (CA-95-182)

Submitted: March 25, 1999 Decided: March 31, 1999

Before WILKINS and MOTZ, Circuit Judges, and BUTZNER, Senior Circuit Judge.

Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Robert Calvin Craig, Jr., Petitioner Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

See Local Rule 36(c).

PER CURIAM: Robert Calvin Craig, a North Carolina inmate, petitions for a writ of error coram nobis in an effort to obtain relief from a prefiling injunction and fine imposed because of his repeatedly filing frivolous actions. Coram nobis is an extraordinary remedy to be used to remedy the most fundamental errors in a conviction after a sentence has been served. See United States v. Mandel, 862 F.2d 1067, 1075 (4th Cir. 1988). Craig’s petition does not satisfy these criteria, and we therefore deny the petition. We deny the motions to proceed in forma pauperis, to expedite, and to strike, and we dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal arguments are adequately presented in the materials before the court, and argument would not significantly aid the decisional process.

PETITION DENIED
