Submitted:   December 16, 1999         Decided:     December 27, 1999

Virgil Franklin Ryder, Appellant Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     Virgil Franklin Ryder appeals the district court’s order

denying relief on his petition for declaratory relief construed as

a 28 U.S.C. § 2241 (1994) petition.     We have reviewed the record

and the district court’s opinion and find no reversible error.

Accordingly, we deny Ryder’s motion to proceed in forma pauperis

and dismiss on the reasoning of the district court.    See Ryder v.

Gaines, No. CA-98-580-5-F (E.D.N.C. Nov. 5, 1998).     We dispense

with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are

adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument

would not aid the decisional process.

                                                          DISMISSED
