R. Civ. P. 59(e) motion for reconsideration. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appealability and dismiss as to the denial of § 2254 relief and affirm as to the denial of § 2241 relief for the reasons stated by the district court. See Ray v. Hamidullah, Nos. 4:06-cv-01178-RBH; 4:06-cv-01201-RBH (D.S.C. Feb. 6 & July 17, 2007). 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. DISMISSED IN PART; AFFIRMED IN PART - 2 -
