District of West Virginia, at Bluefield. David A. Faber, Senior
District Judge. (1:12-cv-02339)

Before NIEMEYER and GREGORY, Circuit Judges, and HAMILTON,
Senior Circuit Judge.

Lionell Elijah Ephraim, Appellant Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Lionell Elijah Ephraim appeals the district court’s
orders adopting the magistrate judge’s report and
recommendation, denying his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 (2012) petition and
denying his Rule 59 motion of the Federal Rules of Civil
Procedure. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible
error. Accordingly, while we grant Ephraim leave to proceed in
forma pauperis, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district
court. Ephraim v. Hogsten, No. 1:12-cv-02339 (S.D.W. Va. Apr.
4, 2014; June 27, 2014). 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
