MCI Telecommunications, Inc., No. CA-97- 183-5-H (E.D.N.C. Apr. 2, 1998). We grant Willis’s motion for “appeals court to exercise jurisdiction in Defendants/Appellees Rule 38 motion” to the extent that Willis seeks to have this court decide the Appellees’ Fed. R. App. P. 38 motion. We deny the Appel- lees’ Fed. R. App. P. 38 motion for sanctions. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequate- ly presented in the materials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process. AFFIRMED 2
