U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit
Louis Ortega v. A. Boyd Puccinelli, 444 F.2d 530 (9th Cir. 1971)
1971 U.S. App. LEXIS 9583
Chambers, Hamley, Merrill, Per Curiam

Louis Ortega v. A. Boyd Puccinelli

Opinion

PER CURIAM:

The dismissal of appellant’s “Petition for a Writ of Prohibition” against a bail bondsman is affirmed.

Under 28 U.S.C. § 1651(a), a writ of prohibition may issue only in aid of the jurisdiction of the issuing court. Stafford v. Superior Court, 272 F.2d 407, 409 (9th Cir. 1959). Appellant’s petition does not assert any underlying action concerning which the district court would have jurisdiction.
