PER CURIAM:

Ronald S. Snipe, a federal prisoner, appeals the 

district court’s order accepting in part and rejecting in part

the recommendation of the magistrate judge and denying relief on 

his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 (2006) petition. We have reviewed the 

record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for 

the reasons stated by the district court. Snipe v. Phillips, 

No. 3:08-cv-00022-JPB-JSK (N.D.W. Va. Dec. 23, 2008). 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
