PER CURIAM:

       John Maurice Henoud, a federal prisoner, appeals the district court’s order

dismissing his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 (2012) petition without prejudice for lack of jurisdiction.

We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, although we grant

leave to proceed in forma pauperis, we deny the motion for a certificate of appealability as

unnecessary and affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. See Henoud v. Smith,

No. 5:18-hc-02226-D (E.D.N.C. May 2, 2019). 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.

                                                                               AFFIRMED
