PER CURIAM.
Jose Maria Gonzales, a federal prisoner, appeals the district court's denial of
Gonzales's 28 U.S.C. § 2241 petition, in which Gonzales asserted he received
ineffective assistance of counsel. After reviewing the record and the parties' briefs, we
agree with the district court that Gonzales may not proceed under § 2241 because 28
U.S.C. § 2255 is neither an inadequate nor ineffective remedy. We affirm. See 8th Cir.
R. 47B.
