Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.


Malik Ambe Nero, Appellant Pro Se.


Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

     Malik Ambe Nero, a federal prisoner, appeals the district

court’s order accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge

and 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

Nero v. Conley, No. CA-00-1224-5 (S.D.W. Va. June 17, 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
