Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. 2 USCA4 Appeal: 23-7193 Doc: 8 Filed: 04/08/2025 Pg: 3 of 3 PER CURIAM: In these consolidated appeals, Willie Horton appeals the district court’s October 23, 2023, order denying his petition for a writ of mandamus and related motions, and December 13, 2023, order denying his Motion for Order of Designation of Record on Appeal. We have reviewed the record and discern no reversible error in those orders. Accordingly, although we grant Horton’s motion for leave to file additional case law on appeal, we affirm the district court’s orders. United States v. Horton, No. 1:89-cr-00180- AJT-1 (E.D. Va. Oct. 23, 2023; filed Dec. 13, 2023 & entered Dec. 14, 2023). 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 3
