2 PER CURIAM:

In these consolidated appeals, Manuel Perez-Colon, a federal prisoner, appeals the

district courts’ orders adopting the recommendations of the magistrate judges and

granting the Government’s motions to dismiss his

(2012) petitions. He

also appeals the order denying reconsideration. Applying our recent decision in United

States v. Wheeler,

(4th Cir. 2018), petition for cert. filed, __ U.S.L.W. __

(U.S. Oct. 3, 2018) (No. 18-420), we conclude that Perez-Colon cannot challenge his

sentence under § 2241 because he has failed to satisfy the requirements of the savings

clause of

(e) (2012). Accordingly, we grant leave to proceed in forma

pauperis and affirm the district courts’ judgments as modified to reflect that the petitions

were dismissed without prejudice for lack of subject matter jurisdiction. See Rice v.

Rivera,

(4th Cir. 2010). We deny Perez-Colon’s motions to

remand. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are

adequately presented in the materials before this court and argument would not aid the

decisional process.

AFFIRMED AS MODIFIED
