PER CURIAM:

     Fleming Macon Pleasants, 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 Pleasants v. DeWalt, No. CA-02-466-5-HO

(E.D.N.C. Feb. 14, 2003).     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
