    Appeal from the United States District Court
    for the Northern District of Alabama

    Before TJOFLAT, HULL and JILL PRYOR, Circuit Judges.
    PER CURIAM:
    Case: 15-10157    Date Filed: 04/14/2016   Page: 2 of 2
    Michael DeVaughn, a pro se California state prisoner, filed this action
    pursuant to Bivens v. Six Unknown Named Agents of Fed. Bureau of Narcotics,
    
    403 U.S. 388
    , 
    91 S. Ct. 1999
    (1971), alleging statutory violations in connection
    with his arrest by the United States Marshals Service and seeking injunctive relief
    to remove a federal detainer issued by the U.S. Parole Commission. The
    government moved to dismiss DeVaughn’s Bivens complaint. The Magistrate
    Judge’s Report and Recommendation recommended dismissing without prejudice
    DeVaughn’s Bivens complaint, also construed as a 28 U.S.C. § 2241 habeas
    corpus petition, because, inter alia, DeVaughn was incarcerated in California and
    the federal detainer was issued in Virginia. The district court agreed and dismissed
    DeVaughn’s complaint without prejudice.
    DeVaughn appeals the district court’s dismissal of his complaint. After
    review, we affirm the district court’s dismissal without prejudice and find no
    reversible error in the Magistrate Judge’s Report and Recommendation, which the
    district court adopted.
    AFFIRMED.
