UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

No. 08-1444

In Re: ISIDORO RODRIGUEZ,

Petitioner.

On Petition for Writ of Mandamus.

Submitted: April 23, 2008 Decided: April 25, 2008

Before MOTZ, KING, and DUNCAN, Circuit Judges.

Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Isidoro Rodriguez, Petitioner Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM:

Isidoro Rodriguez petitions for writ of mandamus pursuant to

the Crime Victims’ Rights Act,

. He asserts that

he is entitled to mandamus relief because of the “summary dismissal

below . . . of his action filed in the United States District for

the District of Columbia . . . pursuant to RICO, the Federal Tort

Claims Act, the Virginia Tort Claims Act, and Virginia Business

Conspiracy Act.” Petitioner also claims that he is entitled to

relief because of the denial of his request to the Federal Courts

of Appeal and the Tax Court to grant him a hearing to “challenge

the void order of the Virginia State Bar.”

Petitioner’s request for mandamus relief is denied.

Petitioner was not entitled to the protections of

in his district court proceedings which were civil in nature, and

in his attempts to challenge the decision of the Virginia State

Disciplinary Board. See

(d)(3).

Finding no application of

to these

proceedings, we deny the petition.

PETITION DENIED
