UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

No. 15-2505

In re: NATURAL BORN CITIZEN PARTY NATIONAL COMMITTEE; HAROLD WILLIAM VAN ALLEN, Co-Chairperson,

Petitioners.

On Petition for Extraordinary Writ. (1:13-cv-00278-LMB-TCB)

Submitted: February 25, 2016 Decided: February 29, 2016

Before SHEDD and HARRIS, Circuit Judges, and DAVIS, Senior Circuit Judge.

Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Harold William Van Allen, Petitioner Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

Howard William Van Allen petitions for an extraordinary

writ, seeking an order directing a variety of actions related to

the 2016 general election. * We conclude that Van Allen is not

entitled to the relief he seeks. Accordingly, we deny Van

Allen’s motion for certification to the Supreme Court and his

petition for an extraordinary writ. We dispense with oral

argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately

presented in the materials before this court and argument would

not aid the decisional process.

PETITION DENIED

* Van Allen, a pro se litigant, may not represent the interests of the Natural Born Citizen Party National Committee and its members, as he attempts to do. See Oxendine v. Williams,

509 F.2d 1405, 1407

(4th Cir. 1975). Accordingly, we consider Van Allen to be the sole petitioner.
