Opinion:
MEMORANDUM
Anthony Friday Udom appeals pro se from the district court's final judgment dismissing without prejudice his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 habeas petition challenging his removal proceedings. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo the district court's legal conclusions and review for clear error its factual find ings. Morton v. Hall, 599 F.3d 942, 945 (9th Cir.2010). We affirm.
The district court correctly dismissed Udom's habeas petition under the prudential exhaustion doctrine because Udom, in challenging his ongoing removal proceedings, had failed to exhaust his administrative remedies and did not qualify for an exception to the exhaustion requirement. See Ward v. Chavez, 678 F.3d 1042, 1045 (9th Cir.2012) ("As a prudential matter, courts require that habeas petitioners exhaust all available judicial and administrative remedies before seeking relief under § 2241."); see also Cabaccang v. U.S. Citizenship & Immigr. Servs., 627 F.3d 1313, 1316 (9th Cir.2010) ("[T]he pendency of removal proceedings means the [petitioners] have not exhausted their administrative remedies").
We deny Udom's June 8, 2012, "Motion to Submit California State Courh-Order-Dismiss of a Deportable Offense & 1993 Mental Illness Report" to the extent the motion seeks leave to submit supplemental materials in support of his appeal. See Trigueros v. Adams, 658 F.3d 983, 987 (9th Cir.2011) ("Generally, we consider only the district court record as developed before appeal.").
AFFIRMED.
