Opinion

UNPUBLISHED

UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

No. 06-7534

In Re: COURTNEY CONSTANTINE WATSON,

Petitioner.

On Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus. (8:04-cr-00104-RWT)

Submitted: December 20, 2006 Decided: January 8, 2007

Before WILKINSON, NIEMEYER, and KING, Circuit Judges.

Dismissed without prejudice by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Courtney Constantine Watson, Petitioner Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM:

Courtney Constantine Watson filed an original

28 U.S.C. § 2241

(2000) petition in this court. Because Watson is

incarcerated in Georgia, no circuit judge on this court has

jurisdiction over his § 2241 petition. Accordingly, we deny leave

to proceed in forma pauperis and dismiss the § 2241 petition

without prejudice to Watson’s right to refile the petition in the

district of his incarceration. 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 WITHOUT PREJUDICE
