PER CURIAM:
Federal prisoner David Rodriguez appeals the district court’s order accepting the
magistrate judge’s recommendation to grant Respondent summary judgment and dismiss
Rodriguez’s 28 U.S.C. § 2241 petition. Review of the record confirms the district court’s
holding that Rodriguez failed to exhaust his administrative remedies before filing his
§ 2241 petition. Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s dismissal order. Rodriguez v.
Knight, No. 9:21-cv-00305-HMH (D.S.C. Sept. 28, 2021). 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
