UNPUBLISHED UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT No. 18-6421 FREDERICK HAMILTON BANKS, Petitioner - Appellant, v. JEFF SESSIONS, Attorney General; J.C. HOLLAND, Warden; BUTNER FEDERAL MEDICAL CENTER, Respondents - Appellees. Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of North Carolina, at Raleigh. James C. Dever III, Chief District Judge. (5:17-hc-02080-D) Submitted: July 19, 2018 Before WILKINSON, MOTZ, and AGEE, Circuit Judges. Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion. Frederick Hamilton Banks, Appellant Pro Se. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. Decided: July 24, 2018 PER CURIAM: Frederick Hamilton Banks appeals the district court’s order dismissing his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 (2012) petition, as well as its order denying Banks’ self-styled “motion to vacate” under Fed. R. Civ. P. 59(e) and Fed. R. Civ. P. 60(b). We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we grant Banks’ application to proceed in forma pauperis and affirm the district court’s orders. See Banks v. Sessions, No. 5:17hc-02080-D (E.D.N.C. Oct. 16, 2017 & Apr. 20, 2018). 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
