PER CURIAM:

Jaron Brice has filed a petition for an original writ of 

habeas corpus challenging his convictions. This court ordinarily 

declines to entertain original habeas corpus petitions under 28 

U.S.C. § 2241 (2012), and this case provides no reason to depart 

from the general rule. Moreover, we find that the interests of 

justice would not be served by transferring the case to the 

district court. See 28 U.S.C. § 1631 (2012). Accordingly, we 

deny leave to proceed in forma pauperis, deny Brice’s motions for 

summary judgment and for release pending review, and dismiss the 

petition. 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.

PETITION DISMISSED
