PER CURIAM:

William Jones, a federal prisoner, appeals the district 

court’s order adopting the magistrate judge’s reports and 

recommendations and denying Jones’ motion to dismiss, his motion 

for judicial notice, and his third motion for reconsideration of 

the dismissal of his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 (2012) petition. We have 

reviewed the record and find no reversible error, as Jones fails 

to satisfy the requirements for a motion to reconsider or the 

requirements set forth in In re Jones, 226 F.3d 328, 333-34 (4th 

Cir. 2000), for application of the savings clause of 28 U.S.C. 

§ 2255(e) (2012). Accordingly, although we grant leave to 

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

judgment. We deny Jones’ motion for the appointment of counsel. 

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
