August 30, 2002
Before HIGGINBOTHAM, SMITH, and CLEMENT, Circuit Judges.

fraud in violation of 18 U.S.C. §§ 371, 1343, and 152. His motions
for a remand and for expedited consideration are DENIED. Because
he is appealing the denial of relief under § 1651, he does not re-
quire a certificate of appealability (“COA”), see 28 U.S.C.
§ 2253(c)(1), so his motion for a COA is DENIED as unnecessary.
Schreiber is not entitled to the relief he seeks under
§ 1651. Jimenez v. Trominski,
91 F.3d 767, 767-68 & n.1 (5th Cir.
1996); Theriault v. Mississippi,
390 F.2d 657, 657 (5th Cir. 1968).
“The writ of coram nobis is an extraordinary remedy available to a
petitioner no longer in custody who seeks to vacate a criminal con-
viction in circumstances where the petitioner can demonstrate civil
disabilities as a consequence of the conviction, and that the chal-
lenged error is of sufficient magnitude to justify the extraordi-
nary relief.”
Jimenez, 91 F.3d at 768. “The writ of audita
querela . . . permits a petitioner to obtain relief against a
judgment based on some legal defense arising after the judgment.”
Id. Schreiber, however, remains in federal custody and is not re-
lying on a legal defense that arose after the judgment.
Id.
The appeal is without merit and is DISMISSED as frivolous.
See Howard v. King,
707 F.2d 215, 219-20 (5th Cir. 1983); 5TH CIR.
R. 42.2.
APPEAL DISMISSED AS FRIVOLOUS; MOTION FOR COA DENIED AS
UNNECESSARY; OTHER MOTIONS DENIED.
