On Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus. Submitted: June 22, 2023 Decided: June 28, 2023 Before WYNN, DIAZ, and THACKER, Circuit Judges. Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion. Stephen Nivens, Petitioner Pro Se. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. USCA4 Appeal: 22-1327 Doc: 12 Filed: 06/28/2023 Pg: 2 of 2 PER CURIAM: Stephen Nivens petitions this court for a writ of habeas corpus. We dismiss the petition for lack of jurisdiction and decline to transfer it to the district court. See
28 U.S.C. § 1631; Dragenice v. Ridge,
389 F.3d 92, 100 (4th Cir. 2004). We also deny Nivens’ motion to appoint counsel. 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. DISMISSED 2
