Christopher M. Watkins, Appellant Pro Se. Betsy S. Jividen,
Assistant United States Attorney, Wheeling, West Virginia, for
Appellee.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Christopher M. Watkins, a federal prisoner, appeals the
magistrate judge’s order denying relief on his 28 U.S.C. § 2241(2000) petition.* We have reviewed the record and find no
reversible error. Accordingly, we deny Watkins’s motions to
expedite and for bail pending appeal, and we affirm for the reasons
stated by the magistrate judge. See Watkins v. Driver, No. 2:06-
cv-00042 (N.D. W. Va. Sept. 20, 2007). 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
*
The parties consented to jurisdiction of the magistrate judge
under 28 U.S.C. § 636(c) (2000).
