Warden NEWCOMER; UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

                                                   Respondents-Appellees

                    Appeal from the United States District Court
                       for the Western District of Louisiana
                              USDC No. 3:10-CV-1075

Before GARWOOD, PRADO and HAYNES, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
       Robert C. Jones, Louisiana prisoner # 92145, filed the instant 28 U.S.C.
§ 2241 petition seeking release from his pre-trial custody in a state mental
facility.    He appeals from the magistrate judge’s denial of his “Emergency
Application for Writ of Habeas Corpus Ad Testificandum,” which he filed several
months after he filed his § 2241 petition.
       This court must examine the basis of its jurisdiction on its own motion if

       *
         Pursuant to 5TH CIR . R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR .
R. 47.5.4.

                                  No. 10-31211

necessary. Mosley v. Cozby, 813 F.2d 659, 660 (5th Cir. 1987). There is no
evidence in the record that Jones consented to proceed before the magistrate
judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(c)(1) or that the district court ever considered
the magistrate judge’s order denying Jones’s emergency application for habeas
relief. Consequently, we DISMISS this appeal for lack of appellate jurisdiction.
See Gregg v. Linder, 349 F.3d 860, 862 (5th Cir. 2003).
