PER CURIAM:

Daniel H. King, a District of Columbia Code offender 

civilly committed under the Adam Walsh Child Protection and 

Safety Act, appeals the district court’s order dismissing his 28 

U.S.C. § 2241 (2012) petition without prejudice. 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. King v. Ratledge, 

No. 5:15-hc-02183-FL (E.D.N.C. Apr. 14, 2016). 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
