v. | |
HERMAN TRACY CLARK, |
After filing multiple unsuccessful petitions for a writ of habeas corpus, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2255, the petitioner in this case, Herman Tracy Clark, filed a petition for a writ of coram nobis. The magistrate judge recommended that the petition be denied. The district court, upon de novo review, adopted the magistrate judge's report and recommendation and denied the writ. Mr. Clark appeals from that denial.
For the reasons stated in the magistrate judge's report and recommendation, filed April 23, 1999, we affirm. Such writs were largely abolished in 1948, leaving only an exceedingly narrow independent action exception for grave miscarriages of justice. United States v. Beggerly, 524 U.S. 38 (1998). This case does not fall into that category.
AFFIRMED. The mandate shall issue forthwith.
ENTERED FOR THE COURT
Stephen H. Anderson
Circuit Judge
