Phillip G. Brown, Appellant Pro Se.

See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     Phillip Brown appeals from the district court’s order denying

relief on his motion filed pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241 (1994).

Our review of the record and the district court’s opinion discloses

no reversible error.   Accordingly, we affirm substantially on the

reasoning of the district court.       See United States v. Brown, No.

CA-98-39-3 (N.D.W. Va. Oct. 13, 1998).         See also Pelissero v.

Thompson, ___ F.3d ___, No. 97-6156 (4th Cir. Mar. 12, 1999).      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
