UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS
FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT
No. 02-7000
AMRO SABRY ELHILALY,
Petitioner - Appellant,
versus
JOHN D. ASHCROFT,
Respondent - Appellee.
Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of
Maryland, at Greenbelt. Peter J. Messitte, District Judge. (CA-
01-4148-PJM)
Submitted: October 15, 2002 Decided: December 4, 2002
Before WILKINS and KING, Circuit Judges, and HAMILTON, Senior
Circuit Judge.
Affirmed as modified by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Amro Sabry Elhilaly, Appellant Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Amro Sabry Elhilaly appeals the district court’s order
dismissing his petition filed under 28 U.S.C. § 2241 (2000). We
have reviewed the record and find no reversible error, but modify
the district court’s judgment to reflect that the dismissal of the
petition is without prejudice.
Accordingly, we affirm as modified on the reasoning of the
district court. See Elhilaly v. Ashcroft, No. CA-01-4148-PJM (D.
Md. June 6, 2002). We grant Elhilaly’s application to proceed on
appeal in forma pauperis and 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 AS MODIFIED
