                            ORDER AND JUDGMENT *


Before BRORBY, KELLY, and MURPHY, Circuit Judges.




      *
          This order and judgment is not binding precedent except under the doctrines of
law of the case, res judicata and collateral estoppel. The court generally disfavors the
citation of orders and judgments; nevertheless, an order and judgment may be cited under
the terms and conditions of 10th Cir. R. 36.3.
      After examining the briefs and appellate record, this panel has determined

unanimously that oral argument would not materially assist the determination of

this appeal. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2); 10th Cir. R. 34.1(G). The case is

therefore ordered submitted without oral argument.



      Appellant Richard Jackson, a state inmate appearing pro se, appeals the

district court’s decision denying his habeas corpus petition filed under 28 U.S.C.

§ 2241 for failure to exhaust existing state remedies. The facts and issues in this

case are identical to those in Rael v. Williams, 223 F.3d 1153 (10th Cir. 2000),

petition for cert. filed, (U.S. Oct. 10, 2000) (No. 00-6587). Thus, our decision is

governed by this court’s analysis and conclusions therein. Accordingly, we grant

Mr. Jackson a certificate of appealability and AFFIRM the judgment of the

district court, as modified, to dismiss the claim cognizable under 28 U.S.C.

§ 2241 with prejudice; all other claims contained in Mr. Jackson’s petition are

dismissed without prejudice.


                                       Entered by the Court:

                                       WADE BRORBY
                                       United States Circuit Judge
