Lyndell Thomas, Appellant Pro Se.


Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

            Lyndell Thomas, 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 for the reasons stated by the

district    court.    See   Thomas    v.     Winkler,   No.   CA-04-1003-FL-5

(E.D.N.C. Apr. 13, 2005).      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
