No. 99-6738

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

Plaintiff - Appellee,

versus

ANDRES MARTINEZ,

Defendant - Appellant.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern Dis- trict of Virginia, at Alexandria. Albert V. Bryan, Jr., Senior District Judge. (CR-96-251-A)

Submitted: October 7, 1999 Decided: October 14, 1999

Before MURNAGHAN, LUTTIG, and MOTZ, Circuit Judges.

Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Andres Martinez, Appellant Pro Se. Rebeca Hidalgo Bellows, Assis- tant United States Attorney, Alexandria, Virginia, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. See Local Rule 36(c). PER CURIAM:

Andres Martinez appeals the district court’s order denying his

motion for an extension of time in which to file a motion pursuant

to

(1994). We have reviewed the record and the

district court’s opinion and find no reversible error. According-

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

See United States v. Martinez, No. CR-96-251-A (E.D. Va. Apr. 19,

1999). We note for Martinez’s benefit, however, that a motion to

extend is not necessary in this case because there is no time limit

for filing a motion under § 2241. We dispense 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
