United States v. Duane W. Larson

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit
United States v. Duane W. Larson, 87 F. App'x 10 (8th Cir. 2004)

United States v. Duane W. Larson

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

Duane Larson appeals the district court’s 1 denial of his petition for a writ of error coram nobis, in which he sought to vacate his drug conviction and sentence (from which he has been released). We agree with the district court that Mr. Larson has not shown he is entitled to coram nobis relief, because he unsuccessfully raised on direct appeal and in prior 28 U.S.C. § 2255 motions the Fourth Amendment and ineffective-assistance-of-counsel claims that he raises here. See Azzone v. United States, 341 F.2d 417, 419-20 (8th Cir.) (per curiam) (coram nobis petitioner not entitled to review of issues that were considered and resolved either on direct appeal or in § 2255 motion), cert. denied, 381 U.S. 943, 85 S.Ct. 1782, 14 L.Ed.2d 706 (1965); cf. United States v. Camacho-Bordes, 94 F.3d 1168, 1172-73 (8th Cir. 1996) (coram nobis relief is “ ‘substantially equivalent’ ” to habeas relief, and abuse-of-the-writ principle applies to coram nobis cases (quoted source omitted)).

Accordingly, we affirm.

. The Honorable Ann D. Montgomery, United States District Judge for the District of Minnesota.
