JACK DAVID COX,
Petitioner-Appellant,
versus
JONATHAN DOBRE, Warden,
Respondent-Appellee.
--------------------
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Eastern District of Texas
USDC No. 1:00-CV-382
--------------------
June 14, 2001
Before WIENER, DeMOSS, and DENNIS, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Jack David Cox (federal prisoner #07269-062) appeals the
district court’s dismissal of his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 petition as
being an impermissible attempt to circumvent the successive
requirements of 28 U.S.C. § 2255. Cox, however, does not
challenge the district court’s basis for dismissal and,
consequently, has waived any challenge to the district court’s
dispositive ruling. See Yohey v. Collins, 985 F.2d 222, 224-25
(5th Cir. 1993). Accordingly, the district court’s judgment is
AFFIRMED.
