United States v. Brown

51 F. App'x 417
Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit·Decided November 26, 2002·No. 02-7011·Unpublished

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

James Brown appeals the district court’s order denying his petition for a writ of quo warranto. We conclude Brown was required to challenge his conviction and sentence via a 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (2000) motion, or, if that remedy proved inadequate or ineffective, by filing a petition pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241 (2000). Thus, Brown was not entitled to a writ of quo warranto. Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s judgment denying Brown’s petition. 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.
