Williams v. Pettiford

315 F. App'x 444
Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit·Decided March 6, 2009·No. No. 08-8089·Published

Opinion

Affirmed by unpublished PER CURIAM opinion.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

PER CURIAM:

William Earl Williams, a federal prisoner, appeals the district court’s order accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and denying relief on his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 (2006) petition. We have reviewed the record and agree with the district court’s conclusion that Williams cannot show that 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 (West Supp.2008) is inadequate or ineffective to test the legality of his detention. Accordingly, we affirm. 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.
