See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     Robert McElhaney appeals the district court’s order denying

relief on his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 (1994) petition.   We have reviewed

the record and the district court’s opinion and find no reversible

error.   Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district

court.   See McElhaney v. United States, Nos. CA-98-83-3; CR-92-22

(S.D.W. Va. Sept. 25, 1998).   We dispense with oral argument be-

cause the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in

the materials before the court and argument would not aid the

decisional process.




                                                          AFFIRMED
