PER CURIAM:
Daquan T. White has filed an original petition for a writ of habeas corpus, seeking
release from jail and dismissal of an indictment issued in Wake County, North Carolina.
This court ordinarily declines to entertain original habeas corpus petitions under 28 U.S.C.
§ 2241 (2012), and this case presents no reason to depart from this practice. Moreover, we
conclude that the interests of justice would not be served by transferring this case to the
district court. See 28 U.S.C. §§ 1631, 2241(b) (2012). Accordingly, we deny leave to
proceed in forma pauperis and dismiss the petition. 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.
PETITION DISMISSED
