PER CURIAM:
Lionell Elijah Ephraim appeals the district court’s order
and judgment adopting the magistrate judge’s report and
recommendation and denying his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 (2012) petition.
We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error.
Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district
court. Ephraim v. Hogsten, No. 1:12-cv-04701 (S.D. W. Va. Oct.
27, 2015). 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
