Jokhan v. Lamanna

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit December 2, 2005

Jokhan v. Lamanna, 156 F. App'x 587 (4th Cir. 2005)

Opinion

*588 PER CURIAM:

Shueyb Mossa Jokhan appeals the district court’s adoption of a magistrate’s recommendation to dismiss his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 (2000) petition. We have reviewed the record and the district court’s opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. See Jokhan v. LaManna, No. CA-04-21874-6-HFF (D.S.C. Apr. 15, 2005). 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

We do not address Jokhan’s claim that he is being discriminated against because of his religion as this claim is raised for the first time on appeal. See Muth v. United States, 1 F.3d 246, 250 (4th Cir. 1993) (holding that issues raised for the first time on appeal are generally waived absent exceptional circumstances).
