Appeal from the United States District Court for the Western District of Virginia, at Roanoke. Jackson L. Kiser, Senior District Judge. (7:19-cv-00200-MFU-JCH)

Jeffrey A. Pleasant, Appellant Pro Se.

Before NIEMEYER and KING, Circuit Judges, and FLOYD, Senior Circuit Judge.

Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

PER CURIAM.

Jeffrey A. Pleasant appeals the district court's orders dismissing for lack of jurisdiction his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 petition and denying reconsideration. Applying the principles as set forth in our recent decision in Slusser v. Vereen, 36 F.4th 590, 594-96 (4th Cir. 2022), we agree with the district court that Pleasant failed to satisfy the requirements of the savings clause of 28 U.S.C. § 2255(e). Accordingly, having reviewed the record and finding no reversible error, we affirm the district court's orders. Pleasant v. Breckon, No. 7:19-cv-00200-MFU-JCH (W.D. Va. Mar. 20, 2020; Jan. 11, 2021). We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the material before this court and argument would not aid in the decisional process.

AFFIRMED.
