PER CURIAM:
Michael Alonza Rufus appeals the district court’s order adopting the magistrate
judge’s recommendation and dismissing his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 petition for relief from a
supervised release violation warrant in his federal criminal case. We have reviewed the
record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s order, see
Rufus v. Warden, No. 6:20-cv-01104-MBS (D.S.C. Sept. 8, 2020), but we modify the
dismissal to be without prejudice, see 28 U.S.C. § 2106; Timms v. Johns, 627 F.3d 525,
533 (4th Cir. 2010). 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 AS MODIFIED
