Alfred Lee Maudlin, Appellant Pro Se.


Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

     Alfred Lee Maudlin appeals the district court’s order denying

relief on his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 (2000) petition.   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 Maudlin v. United States, No. CA-02-224-BO (E.D.N.C.

Apr. 11, 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
