    UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS
    FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT
    No. 15-6154
    CAESAREA DEVELLE JAMES, JR.,
    Petitioner - Appellant,
    v.
    ANNE MARY CARTER, The Warden of MCI            of    the   Federal
    Correctional Institution of Morgantown,
    Respondent - Appellee.
    Appeal from the United States District Court for the Northern
    District of West Virginia, at Elkins.    John Preston Bailey,
    District Judge. (2:14-cv-00042-JPB-JES)
    Submitted:   November 30, 2015            Decided:   December 4, 2015
    Before MOTZ, GREGORY, and DUNCAN, Circuit Judges.
    Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
    Caesarea Develle James, Jr., Appellant Pro Se.
    Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
    PER CURIAM:
    Caesarea Develle James, Jr., a federal prisoner, appeals
    the district court’s order accepting the recommendation of the
    magistrate       judge    to   deny   relief    on    James’      28   U.S.C.    § 2241
    (2012) petition and/or Fed. R. Civ. P. 60(b) motion. *                          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.                      James v. Carter,
    No.    2:14-cv-00042-JPB-JES          (N.D.    W.    Va.   Oct.    29,    2014).      We
    further deny as moot James’ motion for a preliminary injunction.
    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
    *
    We construed James’ untimely notice of appeal as a motion
    for extension of time to file a notice of appeal and,
    accordingly, remanded to the district court to determine whether
    James   had  demonstrated   excusable  neglect  or   good  cause
    warranting an extension of the appeal period.     On remand, the
    district court made the necessary findings and granted the
    motion for extension of time.
