See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     R.B. Boyd, 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

Boyd v. Dewalt, No. CA-02-12-5-H (E.D.N.C. July 17, 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
