PER CURIAM:

     Jimmy Lee Nixon, a federal prisoner, appeals the district

court’s order denying relief on his petition filed under 28 U.S.C.

§ 2241 (2000).   We have independently reviewed the record and find

no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated

by the district court.      See Nixon v. Dewalt, No. CA-02-48-5-BO

(E.D.N.C. June 24, 2002).     We dispense with oral argument because

the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the

materials   before   the   court   and   argument   would   not   aid   the

decisional process.




                                                                  AFFIRMED
