Michael Edward Kennedy, Appellant Pro Se. Larry David Adams, Assistant United States Attorney, Baltimore, Maryland, for Appellees.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

Michael Edward Kennedy, a federal prisoner, appeals

the district court’s order denying relief on his

(2006) petition. We have reviewed the record and find no

reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated

by the district court. Kennedy v. Allera, No. 1:07-cv-02300-BEL

(D. Md. Aug. 7, 2009). 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
