    FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

    No. 99-6136

    RAYFORD KNIGHT,
    Plaintiff - Appellant,
    versus
    JOHN M. VANYUR, Warden,
    Defendant - Appellee.

    Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of North Carolina, at Raleigh. Terrence W. Boyle, Chief District Judge. (CA-98-881-BO-5)

    Submitted:

    June 17, 1999

    Decided:

    June 24, 1999

    Before MURNAGHAN and TRAXLER, Circuit Judges, and BUTZNER, Senior


    Circuit Judge.

    Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.


    Rayford Knight, Appellant Pro Se.

    Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.


    See Local Rule 36(c).

    PER CURIAM:
    Rayford Knight appeals the district courts order denying his
    motion for reconsideration of the order denying relief on his 28
    U.S.C. 2241 (1994) petition.

    We have reviewed the record and the

    district courts opinion and find no reversible error.

    According-

    ly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court.

    See Knight

    v. Vanyur, No. CA-98-881-BO-5 (E.D.N.C. Jan. 22, 1999).

    We dis-

    pense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions
    are adequately presented in the materials before the court and
    argument would not aid the decisional process.

    AFFIRMED
