Beresford Emerson Dakin-Davis, Appellant Pro Se.


Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

     Dakin-Davis appeals the district court’s order denying relief

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

ord and the district court’s opinion and find no reversible error.

Accordingly, we affirm substantially on the reasoning of the

district court.   See Dakin-Davis v. Reno, No. CA-99-23566-DKC (D.

Md. Oct. 1, 1999).   Appellant’s motion for bond while his appeal is

pending is denied.     We dispense with oral argument because the

facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the mate-

rials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional

process.




                                                           AFFIRMED
