Anthony John Trenga, District Judge. (1:16-cv-01412-AJT-IDD) Submitted: September 28, 2017 Decided: October 2, 2017 Before WILKINSON, MOTZ, and KING, Circuit Judges. Affirmed in part, dismissed in part by unpublished per curiam opinion. Younis El Sayedri, Appellant Pro Se. Dennis Carl Barghaan, Jr., Ayana Niambi Free, Assistant United States Attorneys, Alexandria, Virginia, for Appellees. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. 2 PER CURIAM: Younis El Sayedri appeals the district court’s order denying relief on his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 (2012) petition. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Insofar as El Sayedri challenged his convictions, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. El Sayedri v. Sessions, No. 1:16-cv-01412-AJT-IDD (E.D. Va. May 1, 2017). We dismiss the appeal from that part of the court’s order concerning El Sayedri’s final order of removal. See 8 U.S.C. § 1252(a)(5) (2012) (stating that exclusive means to challenge final order of removal is petition for review). Finally, we grant the Appellees’ motion to dismiss and dismiss as moot that part of the appeal challenging El Sayedri’s continued detention. 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 IN PART; DISMISSED IN PART 3
