PER CURIAM:
Philip D. Smith, a federal prisoner, appeals the district court’s order accepting the
recommendation of the magistrate judge and dismissing his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 (2012)
petition for lack of jurisdiction. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible
error. Accordingly, we grant leave to proceed in forma pauperis and affirm for the
reasons stated by the district court. Smith v. Antonelli, No. 4:18-cv-01676-RBH (D.S.C.
Oct. 30, 2018). 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
