Bates, 348 N.C. 29, 497 S.E.2d 276 (1998), and State v. McHone, 348 N.C. 254, 499 S.E.2d 761 (1998), the trial court found that \u201c[following denial of defendant\u2019s first Petition for Writ of Certiorari to the North Carolina Supreme Court, defendant filed his [Petition for] Writ of Habeas Corpus in federal district court [, and a]s part of the federal action, defendant sought and received discovery\u201d; and (v) that the trial court, upon reconsideration of its 22 January 1997 order denying defendant\u2019s second Motion for Appropriate Relief reaffirmed its order in its entirety.\nBased on the foregoing and our reconsideration of defendant\u2019s Petition for Writ of Certiorari and Writ of Mandamus and the State\u2019s response thereto, the Court concludes that under this Court\u2019s decision in State v. Green, 350 N.C. 400, 514 S.E.2d 724 (1999), defendant would be entitled to discovery pursuant to N.C.G.S. \u00a7 15A-1415(f); that defendant, having requested and received discovery in his federal habeas proceeding, the denial of defendant\u2019s discovery request by the trial court was harmless beyond a reasonable doubt; and that defendant has shown no basis meriting this Court\u2019s issuance of a Writ of Mandamus or a Writ of Certiorari to review the trial court\u2019s 27 January 1997 or 16 September 1998 orders denying defendant\u2019s second Motion for Appropriate Relief, Motion for Discovery, and Motion for Appointment of Counsel.\nNOW, THEREFORE, IT IS ORDERED that defendant\u2019s Motion for Reconsideration, filed 29 July 1999 is allowed and, after reconsideration, defendant\u2019s 7 October 1998 Petition for Writ of Certiorari and Mandamus is again denied.\nBy order of the Court in Conference, this 19th day of August,' 1999.\nGeorge L. Wainwright, Jr.\nFor the Court",
