OPINION

The court now has before it the petition for writ of

mandamus filed by petitioner. The petition is due to be

denied. Petitioner should file a formal pleading in the

Bankruptcy Court in the case at issue, and, if he is then

dissatisfied with the ruling, he can then appeal to this

court. A mandamus petition is not the appropriate method

to seek review of a “letter” petitioner alleges he wrote

to the Bankruptcy Court.

An appropriate judgment will be entered.

DONE, this the 23rd day of June, 2006.
