* Senior Judge Sprouse participated in the consideration of the
original appeal but retired prior to the time of this decision.
The decision is filed by a quorum of the panel. 28 U.S.C. § 46(d).
PER CURIAM:

     The district court for the Eastern District of North Carolina

committed Raphael Mendez to the Federal Correctional Institute in

Butner, North Carolina, under 18 U.S.C. § 4246.        Mendez has

petitioned this court to recall the mandate we issued in United
States v. Mendez, No. 91-7685 (4th Cir. July 9, 1992), in which we

affirmed the district court's order.   We decline to exercise our

power to recall in these circumstances and deny Mendez's petition.

If Mendez wishes to challenge his on-going commitment, he should
file a new petition for a writ of habeas corpus in the district

court for the Eastern District of North Carolina.
