Majid Khoshaghad, Appellant Pro Se.

See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     Majid Khoshghad appeals the district court’s order dismissing

his petition under 28 U.S.C. § 2241 (1994).   We have reviewed the

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

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

court.   See Khoshghad v. Reno, No. CA-00-729-7 (W.D. Va. Sept. 27,

2000).   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
