UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

No. 05-7049

LEROY SCOTT, JR.,

Petitioner - Appellant,

versus

KEVIN WENDT, Warden,

Respondent - Appellee.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Northern District of West Virginia, at Wheeling. Frederick P. Stamp, Jr., District Judge. (CA-04-110-1-FPS)

Submitted: October 18, 2005 Decided: October 25, 2005

Before WIDENER, MICHAEL, and DUNCAN, Circuit Judges.

Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Leroy Scott, Jr., Appellant Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

Leroy Scott, Jr., a federal prisoner, appeals the

district court’s order accepting the recommendation of the

magistrate judge and denying relief on his petition filed under

28 U.S.C. § 2241

(2000). We have reviewed the record and find no

reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the

district court. See Scott v. Wendt, No. CA-04-110-1-FPS (N.D.W.

Va. filed June 15, 2005 & entered June 17, 2005); see also Yi v.

Federal Bureau of Prisons,

412 F.3d 526, 534

(4th Cir. 2005)

(upholding Bureau of Prisons’ method of calculating good time

credits as a reasonable interpretation of

18 U.S.C. § 3624

(b)(1)

(2000), and therefore entitled to deference). 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
