PER CURIAM: John W. McKenzie, a federal prisoner, appeals the district court’s order denying relief on his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 petition. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Specifically, the district court correctly concluded that McKenzie could not bring his challenge to his federal criminal conviction under § 2241 and 28 U.S.C. § 2255(e). See Jones v. Hendrix, 599 U.S. 465 (2023). Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s order.

McKenzie v. Brown, No. 5:25-cv-00087-JPB-JPM (N.D. W. Va. Apr. 22, 2025). 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
