Richard Jesso Billuk seeks to appeal the district court’s order dismissing a 28 U.S.C. § 2241 (2000) petition for lack of jurisdiction. The § 2241 petition, filed by Redina Perez, Billuk’s fiancé seeking to act *493 as his “next friend,” seeks to enjoin the Department of Homeland Security from deporting Billuk to his native country of Guam. The district court dismissed the action stating that Perez lacked standing, and that she failed to establish her status as Billuk’s “next Mend” because she offered no explanation as to why Billuk was unable to file on his own behalf. Billuk now appeals. However, because Billuk was not a party to or an intervenor in the proceeding filed by Perez, he lacks standing to challenge the decision on appeal. Davis v. Scott, 176 F.3d 805, 807 (4th Cir. 1999) (holding that a prisoner lacked standing to appeal the district court’s dismissal of a habeas petition filed by his wife, acting “on behalf of’ her husband). Accordingly, we dismiss this appeal. 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.

DISMISSED
