Andre Chung, Appellant Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

PER CURIAM: Andre Chung, a federal prisoner, appeals the district court's order denying relief on his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 (2006) petition. error. and We have reviewed the record and find no reversible

Accordingly, we grant leave to proceed in forma pauperis for the reasons stated by the district court. * We

affirm

Chung v. Owens, No. 3:09-cv-02115-TLW (D.S.C. Oct. 9, 2009). dispense with oral argument because the facts and

legal

contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

AFFIRMED

In addition to the claims addressed by the district court, Chung contended that a negligent homicide conviction was improperly treated as a crime of violence, adversely impacting both his advisory Guidelines range and his custody classification. Section 2241 is not the proper vehicle for challenging alleged inaccuracies in a presentence report. See United States v. Benchimol, 471 U.S. 453, 457 (1985) (Stevens, J., concurring). With respect to the conviction's impact on his custody classification, Chung has failed to state a claim. See McKune v. Lile, 536 U.S. 24, 39-40 (2002); Slezak v. Evatt, 21 F.3d 590, 594 (4th Cir. 1994).
