MEMORANDUM **

Federal prisoner Marcus Deshawn Wright appeals pro se from the district court’s judgment dismissing his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 habeas corpus petition. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo the dismissal of a section 2241 petition, see Alaimalo v. United States, 645 F.3d 1042, 1047 (9th Cir. 2011), and we affirm.

Wright claims that Bureau of Prisons officials have unconstitutionally prevented him from litigating his criminal conviction by seizing his mail and sanctioning him with the loss of phone, visitation, and email correspondence privileges. These claims are not cognizable under section 2241 because they do not concern the manner, location, or conditions of his sentence’s execution. See Hernandez v. Campbell, 204 F.3d 861, 864 (9th Cir. 2000). Rather, as the district court concluded, the appropriate remedy for Wright’s claims lies in a civil rights action under Bivens v. Six Unknown Named Agents, 403 U.S. 388, 91 S.Ct. 1999, 29 L.Ed.2d 619 (1971). See Bounds v. Smith, 430 U.S. 817, 97 S.Ct. 1491, 52 L.Ed.2d 72 (1977) (recognizing right of prisoners to seek relief under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 for denial of access to the courts); Gibson v. United States, 781 F.2d 1334, 1341 (9th Cir. 1986) (Bivens is “the judicially crafted counterpart to section 1983”). Moreover, to the extent that Wright claims that he has been improperly housed in the Special Housing Unit (“SHU”), this claim is moot because Wright is no longer housed in the SHU. See Munoz v. Rowland, 104 F.3d 1096, 1097-98 (9th Cir. 1997).

All pending motions are denied.

AFFIRMED.
