(1:16-cv-00199-IMK-MJA) Submitted: October 17, 2017 Decided: October 20, 2017 Before FLOYD and HARRIS, Circuit Judges, and HAMILTON, Senior Circuit Judge. Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion. William C. Pumphrey, Appellant Pro Se. Helen Campbell Altmeyer, Erin Carter Tison, Assistant United States Attorneys, Wheeling, West Virginia, for Appellee. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM: William C. Pumphrey, a federal prisoner, appeals the district court’s order accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and denying relief on Pumphrey’s 28 U.S.C. § 2241 (2012) petition. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. Pumphrey v. Coakley, No. 1:16-cv-00199-IMK-MJA (N.D.W. Va. June 21, 2017). We further deny as moot Pumphrey’s motion to expedite decision. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before this court and argument would not aid the decisional process. AFFIRMED 2
