PER CURIAM.
In these consolidated appeals, James Willis appeals from the district court’s1
orders denying his petition for a writ of mandamus and assessing a filing fee. Having
reviewed the record, we conclude the court did not abuse its discretion in denying the
petition, see Kerr v. United States Dist. Court, 426 U.S. 394, 403 (1976), and properly
assessed the filing fee in accordance with 28 U.S.C. § 1915.
Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
