PER CURIAM:
Thomas Lee Farmer appeals the district court’s order dismissing his 28 U.S.C.
§ 2241 petition. In light of the Supreme Court’s decision in Jones v. Hendrix, 143 S. Ct.
1857, 1867-69 (2023) (holding that a petitioner cannot use § 2241 petition to mount
successive collateral challenges to federal convictions or sentences), we conclude that
Farmer cannot pursue his claims in a § 2241 petition. Accordingly, we affirm the district
court’s order dismissing Farmer’s § 2241 petition. Farmer v. Wolfe, No. 5:21-cv-00147-
JPB-JPM (N.D.W. Va. May 31, 2023). 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
