PER CURIAM:
Danny A. Rodriguez, a federal prisoner, appeals the district court’s order denying
relief on his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 petition. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible
error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. Rodriguez v.
Streeval, No. 7:20-cv-00194-NKM-JCH (W.D. Va. May 11, 2021). As did the district
court, we note that, to the extent Rodriguez alleges ineffective assistance of counsel or
challenges the validity of his plea based on representations made by prison officials, such
challenges would need to be presented in a motion under 28 U.S.C. § 2255. 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
