Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:

            Donnie Keith Howell, a federal prisoner, appeals the

district court’s order denying relief on his 28 U.S.C.A. § 2241

(West 2006 & Supp. 2012) petition.         We have reviewed the record

and find no reversible error.           Accordingly, although we grant

leave to proceed in forma pauperis, we affirm for the reasons

stated by the district court.           Howell v. Wilson, No. 1:12-cv-

00292-CMH-TRJ (E.D. Va. filed Mar. 21, 2012; entered Mar. 23,

2012).     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.
