PER CURIAM:
Paul R. Jones petitions for a writ of mandamus seeking
an order compelling the United States Attorney General to
investigate an Arizona district court in connection with a civil
action in that court. We conclude that we lack jurisdiction to
issue the requested writ. See Gurley v. Superior Court of
Mecklenburg County, 411 F.2d 586, 587 (4th Cir. 1969).
Accordingly, we dismiss the petition for writ of mandamus. 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 DISMISSED
