ROBERT J. CONRAD, JR., District Judge.
THIS MATTER is before the Court upon motion of the defendant pro se for jail credit. (Doc. No. 62).
The defendant seeks credit for time in custody after his arrest by federal authorities on November 13, 2009, through his sentencing date of February 1, 2011. (Id.). It is the responsibility of the Attorney General, through the Bureau of Prisons, to compute jail credit. United States v. Stroud, 584 F. App'x 159, 160 (4th Cir. 2014) (citing United States v. Wilson, 503 U.S. 329, 334-35 (1992)). If a defendant is not given the sentencing credit he thinks he deserves, his recourse is first to seek an administrative remedy, 28 C.F.R. § 542.10, and after that to file a petition under 28 U.S.C. § 2241 in the district of confinement.1 Id.
IT IS, THEREFORE, ORDERED, that the defendant's pro se motion to receive jail credit (Doc. No. 62) is DENIED.
The Clerk is directed to certify copies of this order to the defendant, counsel for the defendant, to the United States Attorney, the United States Marshals Service, and the United States Probation Office.
