PER CURIAM:

Lance Whitaker, a federal prisoner, appeals the 

district court’s order granting in part and denying in part his 

28 U.S.C. § 2241 (2012) petition. We have reviewed the record 

and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we grant leave to 

proceed in forma pauperis, and affirm the district court’s 

order. We also deny Whitaker’s motion to reopen his 28 U.S.C. 

§ 2255 (2012) proceeding. 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
