Harry Lee Riddick, federal prisoner # 48116-060, appeals from the dismissal of his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 petition. Riddick challenges his conviction of operating a continuing criminal enterprise, conspiracy *232 to possess with intent to distribute cocaine, distribution of cocaine in or near a school, and distribution of cocaine.

Riddick seeks relief pursuant to United States v. Booker, 543 U.S. 220, 125 S.Ct. 738, 160 L.Ed.2d 621 (2005); Blakely v. Washington, 542 U.S. 296, 124 S.Ct. 2531, 159 L.Ed.2d 403 (2004); and Richardson v. United States, 526 U.S. 813, 119 S.Ct. 1707, 143 L.Ed.2d 985 (1999). Riddick’s Booker and Blakely claims do not fall under the “savings clause” of 28 U.S.C. § 2255; he thus may not pursue relief under § 2241. See Padilla v. United States, 416 F.3d 424, 427 (5th Cir. 2005). Riddick’s appellate brief indicates that he knew about Richardson before he filed his § 2255 motion in 2001; he therefore could have raised his Richardson issues in that motion and may not pursue them in a § 2241 petition. See Reyes-Requena v. United States, 243 F.3d 893, 904 (5th Cir. 2001).

AFFIRMED.
