PER CURIAM:
Roger Lee Smith, a federal prisoner, appeals the district court’s order dismissing his
28 U.S.C. § 2241 (2012) petition. 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. Smith v. Gomez, No. 5:19-cv-00145-JPB-JPM
(N.D.W. Va. Apr. 30, 2019). 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
