PER CURIAM:

           David Hicks, a federal prisoner, appeals the district

court’s orders denying relief on his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 (2006)

petition and his motion for reconsideration.               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.              Hicks v. Fed. Bureau of

Prisons,   No.   0:08-cv-01911-HFF       (D.S.C.    Mar.   16,   2009;   filed

June 22, 2009 and entered June 23, 2009).            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
