PER CURIAM:

             William M. Bryson, Jr., appeals from the district court’s

order denying his petition for a writ of error coram nobis.                   We

have reviewed the record and find no reversible error.               See United

States v. Morgan, 346 U.S. 502, 511 (1954) (finding writ available

only    to   correct   fundamental    error   where   no   other     remedy   is

available); United States v. Mandel, 862 F.2d 1067, 1075 (4th Cir.

1988) (same); United States v. Taylor, 648 F.2d 565, 572 (9th Cir.

1981)    (writ   available   where    direct    appeal     pending    only    in

extraordinary circumstances). Accordingly, we affirm. We dispense

with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are

adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument

would not aid the decisional process.



                                                                      AFFIRMED
