Richard J. Harley, Appellant Pro Se.


Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     Richard J. Harley, a federal prisoner, appeals the district

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

§ 2241 (2000), and his motions for release and to alter or amend

the judgment.   We have reviewed the record and find no reversible

error.   Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district

court. See Harley v. Shearin, No. CA-03-711-CCB (D. Md. filed Mar.

26, 2003, entered Mar. 27, 2003; filed Apr. 4, 2003, entered Apr.

7, 2003; filed Apr. 24, 2003, entered Apr. 28, 2003).   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
