PER CURIAM:

James Edward McLean, Jr., a federal prisoner, appeals the 

district court’s order accepting the recommendation of the 

magistrate judge and dismissing his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 (2012)

petition as successive under 28 U.S.C. § 2244(a) (2012). 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. McLean v. Warden, No. 9:13-cv-03022-MGL (D.S.C. Sept. 

30, 2014). 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
