PER CURIAM:

Caesarea Develle James, Jr., a federal prisoner, appeals 

the district court’s order accepting the recommendation of the 

magistrate judge to deny relief on James’ 28 U.S.C. § 2241 

(2012) petition and/or Fed. R. Civ. P. 60(b) motion.* 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. James v. Carter, 

No. 2:14-cv-00042-JPB-JES (N.D. W. Va. Oct. 29, 2014). We 

further deny as moot James’ motion for a preliminary injunction. 

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

 * We construed James’ untimely notice of appeal as a motion 

for extension of time to file a notice of appeal and, 

accordingly, remanded to the district court to determine whether 

James had demonstrated excusable neglect or good cause 

warranting an extension of the appeal period. On remand, the 

district court made the necessary findings and granted the 

motion for extension of time.
