Opinion

MEMORANDUM **

Federal prisoner Jason Cavezza appeals, pro se from the district court’s order denying his motion to reconsider its April 29, 2014, order directing the Clerk to return funds to Cavezza that he had sent to the court with a request for copies of certain documents. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.

Cavezza contends that the district court should have directed the Clerk to provide him with “certified” copies of certain documents from his criminal case file or with a “certified” letter stating that the requested documents did not exist. We review the district court’s denial of the motion for reconsideration for abuse of discretion. See United States v. Tapia-Marquez, 361 F.3d 535, 537 (9th Cir.2004). The district court did not abuse its discretion because Cavezza has failed to show that he is entitled to certified copies of the documents or the letter he requested. To the extent that Cavezza petitions this court for a writ of mandamus, he has not demonstrated that he is entitled to that extraordinary remedy. See Bauman v. U.S. Dist. Court, 557 F.2d 650 (9th Cir.1977).

AFFIRMED.
