Circuit Judge.
Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Paul Colson, Appellant Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Paul Colson, a federal prisoner, appeals the district court’s
order denying relief on his petition filed under 28 U.S.C. § 2241
(2000). We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error.
Accordingly, we grant leave to proceed in forma pauperis and affirm
on the reasoning of the district court. See Colson v. Dewalt, No.
CA-02-310-5-H (E.D.N.C. June 4, 2002). 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.
AFFIRMED
