On Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus.
Brad Edmonds, Petitioner Pro Se.
Before WYNN, Circuit Judge, and KEENAN and FLOYD, Senior Circuit Judges.
Petition dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM
Brad Edmonds petitions this court for a writ of habeas corpus. This court does not have jurisdiction to entertain original habeas corpus petitions under 28 U.S.C. § 2241. See Dragenice v. Ridge, 389 F.3d 92, 100 (4th Cir. 2004). Moreover, the interest of justice would not be served by transferring the case to the district court. See 28 U.S.C. § 1631. We therefore dismiss Edmonds' petition for lack of jurisdiction. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before this court and argument would not aid the decisional process.
PETITION DISMISSED
