UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

No. 04-6458

WALTER L. KING,

Petitioner - Appellant,

versus

BOBBY G. COMPTON,

Respondent - Appellee.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Western District of Virginia, at Roanoke. Jackson L. Kiser, Senior District Judge. (CA-03-193-7)

Submitted: July 15, 2004 Decided: July 21, 2004

Before MOTZ, KING, and GREGORY, Circuit Judges.

Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Walter L. King, Appellant Pro Se. Julie C. Dudley, Assistant United States Attorney, Roanoke, Virginia, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. See Local Rule 36(c). PER CURIAM:

Walter L. King, 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 affirm on the reasoning of the district

court. See King v. Compton, No. CA-03-193-7 (W.D. Va. Feb. 19,

2004). We deny King’s motion for appointment of appellate counsel.

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
