The following excerpt is from Music Merchants, Inc., In re, 78 F.3d 594 (9th Cir. 1996):
We deny Taxe's request to construe his appeal as a petition for a writ of mandamus. Taxe has failed to demonstrate that bankruptcy court's order was clearly erroneous as a matter of law, see id. at 419, or that his case is so exceptional as to warrant the granting of a mandamus petition, see United States District Court v. Bauman, 557 F.2d 650, 654 (9th Cir.1977).
