OPINION
PER CURIAM:
James T. Pope appeals from the district court's order transferring his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 petition to the Eastern District of Tennessee. Our review of the record and the district court's opinion discloses that this appeal is without merit. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. Pope v. Townsend, CA-91-115-HC-H (E.D.N.C. Apr. 12, 1991). 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.
