PER CURIAM:
William Earl Williams, a federal prisoner, appeals the
district court’s order accepting the recommendation of the
magistrate judge and denying relief on his 28 U.S.C. § 2241
(2006) petition. We have reviewed the record and agree with the
district court’s conclusion that Williams cannot show that 28
U.S.C.A. § 2255 (West Supp. 2008) is inadequate or ineffective
to test the legality of his detention. Accordingly, we affirm.
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
