Dodd v. Jeter
Dodd v. Jeter
Opinion of the Court
Ernest Raymond Dodd, federal prisoner # 17742-077, appeals the denial of his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 petition. He argues that his sentence is invalid in light of Blakely v. Washington, 542 U.S. 296, 124 S.Ct. 2531, 159 L.Ed.2d 403 (2004), and United States v. Booker, 543 U.S. 220, 125 S.Ct. 738, 160 L.Ed.2d 621 (2005). Dodd’s argument is directed toward a sentencing error; such an argument may not be brought under 28 U.S.C. § 2241. See Padilla v. United States, 416 F.3d 424, 425-26 (5th Cir. 2005).
Pursuant to 5th Cir. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.
