Herman Douglas Carter, Jr., Yazoo City, MS, pro se.
Appeal from the United States District Court for the Southern District of Mississippi, USDC No. 5:09-CV-40.
Before GARZA, CLEMENT, and OWEN, Circuit Judges.
Herman Douglas Carter, Jr., federal prisoner # 83346-020, appeals the district court's dismissal of his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 petition, in which he challenged his conviction for aggravated sexual assault and kidnaping and resulting 327-month sentence. The district court determined that Carter could not proceed under § 2241 because his claims did not satisfy the requirements of the "savings clause" of 28 U.S.C. § 2255(e). Carter's brief is entirely devoted to the merits of his claims for relief. Carter has not argued, much less shown, that he is entitled to proceed under § 2241 based on the savings clause of § 2255(e). See Reyes-Requena v. United States, 243 F.3d 893, 900-01, 904 (5th Cir. 2001). Carter has waived the issue by failing to brief it. See Yohey v. Collins, 985 F.2d 222, 224-25 (5th Cir. 1993); Brinkmann v. Dallas County Deputy Sheriff Abner, 813 F.2d 744, 748 (5th Cir. 1987). The judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED. Carter's "motion requesting a bond hearing be set," "motion for emergency hearing for writ of habeas corpus," and motion to remand incorporated therein are DENIED. See Calley v. Callaway, 496 F.2d 701, 702 (5th Cir. 1974).
