UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff-Appellee v. JERRY LEON ROBINSON, also known as Jerry Robinson, Defendant-Appellant


Summary Calendar Appeals from the United States District Court for the Southern District of Mississippi
USDC No. 1:10-CR-103 Before JOLLY, DENNIS, and PRADO, Circuit Judges. PER CURIAM:

Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR. R. 47.5.4. --------

Jerry Robinson, federal inmate # 15972-043, seeks leave to proceed in forma pauperis (IFP) in his appeals from the denial of his motions to compel counsel to surrender his case file and to dismiss the indictment for lack of subject jurisdiction. The appeals are CONSOLIDATED.

Neither of Robinson's motions fell into a recognized category of post-conviction motions. Consequently, the instant appeals are from the denial of "meaningless, unauthorized motion[s]," and the district court lacked jurisdiction to entertain them. United States v. Early, 27 F.3d 140, 142 (5th Cir. 1994). Thus we pretermit as moot any ruling on Robinson's IFP motions.

APPEALS DISMISSED.
