Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:

          Richard Earl Wilson, Jr., a federal prisoner,             appeals

the district court’s order denying relief on his 28 U.S.C.A.

§ 2241 (West 2006 & Supp. 2012) petition.            We have reviewed the

record and find no reversible error.             Accordingly, although we

grant leave to proceed in forma pauperis, we affirm for the

reasons stated by the district court.              Wilson v. Thomas, No.

2:12-cv-00540-RBS-TEM (E.D. Va. Nov. 14, 2012).               We dispense

with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are

adequately    presented   in   the   materials    before   this   court   and

argument would not aid the decisional process.



                                                                   AFFIRMED
