Joseph Riddick, Appellant Pro Se.


Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

     Joseph Riddick appeals the district court’s order denying

relief on his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 (1994) petition.     We have reviewed

the record and the district court’s order and find no reversible

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

court. See Riddick v. Conley, No. CA-01-899-2 (E.D. Va. filed Apr.

1, 2002; entered Apr. 2, 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
