UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS
FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT
No. 01-1733
In Re: THOMAS W. HILL,
Petitioner.
On Petition for Writ of Mandamus. (CA-01-64-1-T)
Submitted: July 12, 2001 Decided: July 26, 2001
Before WILLIAMS, MICHAEL, and MOTZ, Circuit Judges.
Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Thomas W. Hill, Petitioner Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Thomas W. Hill filed this mandamus petition seeking to compel
the district court to exercise its jurisdiction over his recently
dismissed complaint. Where there is another available remedy, man-
damus relief is not available. In re Beard, 811 F.2d 818, 826 (4th
Cir. 1987). Mandamus relief is not a substitute for appeal. In re
United Steelworkers,
595 F.2d 958, 960 (4th Cir. 1979). Because we
conclude Hill has other adequate remedies, we deny Hill’s petition
for mandamus relief.
We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal
contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the
court and argument would not aid the decisional process.
PETITION DENIED
