United States Court of Appeals
for the Federal Circuit

In re: EARL LANGHAM, JR.,

On Petition for Writ of Mandamus to the United States
District Court for the Western District of Texas.

ON PETITION AND MOTION
______________________
P ER CURIAM .
O R D E R
Earl Langham, Jr. has filed a submission at this court
seeking a “writ of habeas corpus,” “writ of mandamus,” and
“writ of quo warranto,” demanding that Rodney Rodell-
Reed be “free and clear of any wrong doing.”
The Federal Circuit is a court of appeals that does not
have original or appellate jurisdiction over writs of habeas
corpus or criminal matters. See 28 U.S.C § 1295. Because
this court does not have jurisdiction to issue a writ of ha-
beas corpus, and because issuing a writ of mandamus here
would not be in “aid our of [our] jurisdiction[],” 28 U.S.C.
§ 1651(a), we dismiss this petition.
Accordingly,
