Before DeMOSS, DENNIS, and PRADO, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Marlan Baucum, who is currently on supervised release
following service of a sentence of imprisonment, appeals from
the dismissal with prejudice of his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 petition.
Baucum’s sentence was imposed following his conviction on one
count of bank fraud and on multiple counts of wire fraud and
making false statements on credit applications. See 18 U.S.C.
§§ 1014, 1343, 1344.
*
Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined
that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent
except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.
R. 47.5.4.
No. 03-60037
-2-
Baucum contends that the Government failed at trial
to establish that the financial institutions named in his
indictment were federally insured, and thus failed to establish
jurisdiction. He asserts that he is entitled to raise a
challenge to subject matter jurisdiction at any time.
Because Baucum’s petition attacks errors occurring during
or before sentencing, 28 U.S.C. § 2255, rather than Section 2241,
is the proper means of attacking the errors of which Baucum
complains. See Ojo v. INS,
106 F.3d 680, 683 (5th Cir. 1997).
Baucum has made no attempt to show that he satisfies the
requirements of the so-called ‘savings clause’ in 28 U.S.C.
§ 2255. See Wesson v. U.S. Penitentiary Beaumont, TX,
305 F.3d
343, 347 (5th Cir. 2002), cert. denied,
123 S. Ct. 1374 (2003).
We do not consider Baucum’s contention that the rejection of his
habeas petition would violate the Suspension Clause because it is
raised for the first time in his reply brief. See United States
v. Prince,
868 F.2d 1379, 1386 (5th Cir. 1989).
The judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED.
