PER CURIAM:
Graham Harry Schiff petitions this court pursuant to Fed. R. App. P. 21 for an
extraordinary writ, seeking an order declaring unconstitutional or void and enjoining
enforcement of Exec. Order No. 14,347,
90 Fed. Reg. 43893-94 (Sep. 5, 2025).
This court’s authority to issue extraordinary writs pursuant to Fed. R. App. P. 21 is
governed by the All Writs Act (the Act),
28 U.S.C. § 1651. Under the Act, federal courts
“may issue all writs necessary or appropriate in aid of their respective jurisdictions and
agreeable to the usages and principles of law.”
28 U.S.C. § 1651(a). The Act “is a residual
source of authority to issue writs that are not otherwise covered by statute.” Carlisle v.
United States,
517 U.S. 416, 429(1996) (internal quotation marks omitted). Thus,
petitioners may not resort to the Act, or to the common law writs it authorizes, when
another remedy is available. See
id.Because another remedy is available to Schiff, he fails
to satisfy the requirements for relief under the Act. We therefore deny 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
