PER CURIAM:

     Kendell C. Alexander, a federal prisoner, appeals the district

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

§ 2241 (2000).   We have reviewed the record and find no reversible

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

court.   See Alexander v. Shearin, No. CA-01-3574-PJM (D. Md. filed

Aug. 21, 2002; entered Aug. 22, 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
