No. 05-7686

JESUS EDUARDO ROSAS-ZULOAGA,

Petitioner - Appellant,

versus

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

Respondent - Appellee.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of North Carolina, at Raleigh. Malcolm J. Howard, Senior District Judge. (CA-05-425-5)

Submitted: March 23, 2006 Decided: March 29, 2006

Before WILKINSON, LUTTIG, and WILLIAMS, Circuit Judges.

Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Jesus Eduardo Rosas-Zuloaga, Appellant Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

Jesus Eduardo Rosas-Zuloaga, a federal prisoner, appeals

the district court’s dismissing his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 (2000)

petition. We have reviewed the record and the district court’s

order and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the

ground that Zuloaga’s petition is properly charaterized as an

unauthorized successive 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (2000) motion. 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

* To the extent Rosas-Zuloaga may be seeking authorization under 28 U.S.C. § 2244 (2000) to file a second and successive § 2255 motion based on the rules announced in United States v. Booker, 543 U.S. 220 (2005), and Blakely v. Washington, 542 U.S. 296 (2004), we deny authorization.
