Plaintiff - Appellant,

versus

BUREAU OF PRISONS; B. G. COMPTON,

Defendants - Appellees.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Western District of Virginia, at Roanoke. Samuel G. Wilson, District Judge. (CA-03-662-7-SGW)

Submitted: April 29, 2005 Decided: May 11, 2005

Before MOTZ and SHEDD, Circuit Judges, and HAMILTON, Senior Circuit Judge.

Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Fernando M. Smith, Appellant Pro Se. Thomas Linn Eckert, Assistant United States Attorney, Roanoke, Virginia, for Appellees.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

Fernando M. Smith, a federal prisoner, appeals the

district court’s order accepting the recommendation of the

magistrate judge and 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

magistrate judge as adopted by the district court. See Smith v.

Bureau of Prisons, No. CA-03-662-7-SGW (W.D. Va. Oct. 25, 2004).

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
