McCutcheon v. Guzik

IN THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FIFTH CIRCUIT No. 01-10366 Conference Calendar BYRON LAMONTE MCCUTCHEON, Petitioner-Appellant, versus BOB GUZIK, Warden, Federal Medical Center, Fort Worth, Texas, Respondent-Appellee. -------------------- Appeal from the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas USDC No. 4:00-CV-1754-A -------------------- August 21, 2001 Before KING, Chief Judge, and POLITZ and PARKER, Circuit Judges. PER CURIAM:* Byron Lamonte McCutcheon, federal prisoner #60246-080, appeals the district court’s denial of his postjudgment motion challenging the judgment that dismissed his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 petition. McCutcheon’s motion is construed as a Fed. R. Civ. P. 60(b) motion, the denial of which we review for abuse of discretion. Travelers Ins. Co. v. Liljeberg Enter., Inc., 38 F.3d 1404, 1408 (5th Cir. 1994); Hamilton Plaintiffs v. Williams Plaintiffs, 147 F.3d 367, 371 n.10 (5th Cir. 1998). * Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR. R. 47.5.4. No. 01-10366 -2- McCutcheon did not make the showing required to proceed under 28 U.S.C. § 2241. See Reyes-Requena v. United States, 243 F.3d 893, 904 (5th Cir. 2001). Accordingly, he has not shown that the district court’s denial of his Fed. R. Civ. P. 60(b) motion was an abuse of discretion. See Travelers Ins. Co., 38 F.3d at 1408. The judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED.
