#### Walter E. MICHAELS, Appellant, v. PEOPLE of the STATE OF CALIFORNIA, Appellee.

No. 13832.

United States Court of Appeals Ninth Circuit.

Nov. 9, 1954.

Rehearing Denied Dec. 17, 1954.

Walter E. Michaels, Los Angeles, Cal., in pro. per.

Roger Arnebergh, City Atty., Donald M. Redwine, Asst. City Atty., William E. Still, Deputy City Atty., Los Angeles, Cal., for appellee.

Before STEPHENS, FEE, and CHAMBERS, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM.

The above entitled matter appears from the transcript on appeal to consist of a petition on behalf of Walter E. Michaels to have the district court make an order removing a criminal case pending against him in the “Los Angeles Municipal Court, Division 27, of the City of Los Angeles, State of California,” to the United States District Court.

The district court denied the petition “on the ground that said petition is frivolous and is not within the purview of sections 14411 and 1443 2 of Title 28, *618U.S.Code.” Michaels filed a notice of appeal.

The petition is not based upon any complaint filed in the district court and it is obvious that the sections of the United States Code relied upon have no application to the relief sought. Assuming that the matter was one in which the district court had jurisdiction to enter a judgment, which we think is highly doubtful, we find no clear error in it.

At the oral argument of petitioner he presented five instruments and the court resérved ruling. As they appear to have no legal relation to the appeal, filing of them is hereby denied. The instruments will be marked “Denied filing” and retained by the clerk until and unless Michaels requests their return. The instruments are entitled as follows:

(1) “Petition for Removal”. This petition appears to be an original petition addressed to this court.

(2) “Motion to Appeal Extra Judgments” (Rec. Mar. 19, 1954, O’Brien, Clerk) and “Motion to Appeal Extra Judgments” (Rec. Aug. 30, 1954, O’Brien, Clerk). This instrument appears to request the judgment below to include or relate to other cases filed in the State court.

(3) “Motion for Writ of Certiorari”. This motion appears to request this court to order removed to the clerk of the court “to remain temporarily, for about 10 days” the record and proceedings in the cases in the Municipal Court.

(4) “Motion for Discovery” (from City of Los Angeles police employee #3776). “Motion for Discovery” (from Judge Robert Clifton). This motion appears to request a named judge of the Municipal Court to answer in regard to discoveries allegedly made by Michaels.

(5) “Motion for Finding of Fact”. In this motion, Michaels requests us to order the judge of the district court to make a finding of “specific facts” upon which he found the Michaels’ petition frivolous.

Petition dismissed.
