Petitioner-Appellant
v.
JOHN B FOX, Warden
Respondent-Appellee
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Eastern District of Texas
USDC No. 1:07-CV-606
Before KING, BARKSDALE, and OWEN, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Joel Lopez-Fernandez (Lopez), federal prisoner # 06964-030, appeals the
denial of his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 petition challenging his methamphetamine and
firearms convictions. The district court determined that Lopez’s claims
collaterally attacked his conviction and, as such, he was precluded from
proceeding via § 2241 because he had failed to show the 28 U.S.C. § 2255 remedy
inadequate. See Reyes-Requena v. United States, 243 F.3d 893, 904 (5th Cir.

AFFIRMED.
