Annotate this Case
U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit - 923 F.2d 849 (4th Cir. 1991) Submitted Jan. 7, 1991. Decided Jan. 25, 1991

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of North Carolina, at Raleigh. (MISC-90-243)

Willie James Grimes, appellant pro se.

E.D.N.C.

DISMISSED.

Before DONALD RUSSELL, WIDENER and K.K. HALL, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:


Willie James Grimes noted an appeal to this Court of the North Carolina Supreme Court's denial of his petition for writ of certiorari, in which he sought to have his criminal conviction overturned. Because this Court does not have jurisdiction over appeals of state court orders, we dismiss the appeal. District of Columbia Court of Appeals v. Feldman, 460 U.S. 462 (1983). We deny leave to appeal in forma pauperis. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the Court and argument would not significantly aid the decisional process.

DISMISSED.
