Derek Sprouse, Appellant Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:

       Derek Sprouse, a Virginia inmate, appeals the district court’s order dismissing, on

28 U.S.C. § 1915A review, his petition for writ of mandamus seeking an order directing

the Supreme Court of Virginia to act. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible

error. Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s order. Sprouse v. Virginia, No. 1:21-cv-

00670-RDA-IDD (E.D. Va. Nov. 5, 2021). We deny Sprouse’s motion for the appointment

of counsel. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are

adequately presented in the materials before this court and argument would not aid the

decisional process.

                                                                              AFFIRMED
