Appeal from the United States District Court for the Northern District of West Virginia, at
Martinsburg. Gina M. Groh, Chief District Judge. (3:18-cv-00092-GMG)


Submitted: June 18, 2020                                          Decided: June 23, 2020

Mark A. White, Appellant Pro Se.

PER CURIAM:

       Mark A. White, a federal prisoner, appeals the district court’s order accepting the

recommendation of the magistrate judge and denying relief on White’s 28 U.S.C. § 2241

(2018) petition in which he sought to challenge his conviction and sentence by way of the

savings clause in 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (2018). Pursuant to § 2255(e), a prisoner may challenge

his conviction and sentence in a traditional writ of habeas corpus pursuant to § 2241 if a

§ 2255 motion would be inadequate or ineffective to test the legality of his detention.

       [Section] 2255 is inadequate and ineffective to test the legality of a sentence
       when: (1) at the time of sentencing, settled law of this circuit or the Supreme
       Court established the legality of the sentence; (2) subsequent to the prisoner’s
       direct appeal and first § 2255 motion, the aforementioned settled substantive
       law changed and was deemed to apply retroactively on collateral review; (3)
       the prisoner is unable to meet the gatekeeping provisions of § 2255(h)(2) for
       second or successive motions; and (4) due to this retroactive change, the
       sentence now presents an error sufficiently grave to be deemed a fundamental
       defect.

United States v. Wheeler, 

, 429 (4th Cir. 2018) (emphasis added).

       [Section] 2255 is inadequate and ineffective to test the legality of a conviction
       when: (1) at the time of conviction, settled law of this circuit or the Supreme
       Court established the legality of the conviction; (2) subsequent to the
       prisoner’s direct appeal and first § 2255 motion, the substantive law changed
       such that the conduct of which the prisoner was convicted is deemed not to
       be criminal; and (3) the prisoner cannot satisfy the gatekeeping provisions of
       § 2255 because the new rule is not one of constitutional law.

In re Jones, 

, 333-34 (4th Cir. 2000) (emphasis added).

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

we grant leave to proceed in forma pauperis, we affirm the district court’s order. White v.

Entzel, No. 3:18-cv-00092-GMG (N.D.W. Va. Mar. 24, 2020). We dispense with oral



                                              2
argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials

before this court and argument would not aid the decisional process.
