Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

      Alessandro Taloni, a federal prisoner, appeals the district court’s order denying

relief on his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 (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. Taloni v. Tripp, No. 5:16-hc-02089-D

(E.D.N.C. Nov. 13, 2017). We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal

contentions are adequately presented in the materials before this court and argument

would not aid the decisional process.
