(CA-04-178-GEC)
Submitted: October 29, 2004 Decided: November 23, 2004
Before NIEMEYER, WILLIAMS, and MOTZ, Circuit Judges.
Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Kenny A. Carter, Appellant Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Kenny A. Carter appeals from the district court’s orders
dismissing without prejudice his petition filed under 28 U.S.C.
§ 2241 (2000) and denying his motion for reconsideration. We have
reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we
affirm the district court’s dismissal of Carter’s petition.
Because, however, the district court’s dismissal was without
prejudice, Carter may refile his petition in the place of his
incarceration. We deny Carter’s motion to seal his records. 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.
AFFIRMED
