Before COLLOTON, ERICKSON, and GRASZ, Circuit Judges.
                         ____________

PER CURIAM.
      Federal inmate Gary Hamell-El appeals the district court’s1 order denying his
28 U.S.C. § 2241 petition challenging his sentence computation by the Bureau of
Prisons (BOP). Following de novo review, we find no error in the application of the
primary jurisdiction doctrine, and conclude that the BOP permissibly denied Hamell-
El credit prior to the commencement of his federal sentence. See Elwell v. Fisher,

, 481-87 (8th Cir. 2013). The judgment is affirmed. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
                        ______________________________

       The Honorable Brian S. Miller, United States District Judge for the Eastern
District of Arkansas, adopting the recommended disposition of the Honorable J.
Thomas Ray, United States Magistrate Judge for the Eastern District of Arkansas.
