(8:18-cv-00577-TDC) Submitted: October 23, 2018 Decided: October 26, 2018 Before NIEMEYER, KING, and WYNN, Circuit Judges. Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion. James K. Burks, Jr., Appellant, Pro Se. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM: James K. Burks, Jr., a federal prisoner, 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. Accordingly, although we grant leave to proceed in forma pauperis, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. Burks v. Stewart, No. 8:18-cv-00577TDC (D. Md. Filed June 11, 2018; entered June 12, 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
