PER CURIAM.
Shortly before Theodore Manos began serving a life term of supervised release
in the District of Nebraska, he filed a motion to transfer jurisdiction over his
supervision to the District of Minnesota and to modify some conditions of his release.
The district court1 denied Manos’s motion, initially and upon reconsideration, and he
appeals.
Because Manos was not yet on supervised release when he requested a transfer
of jurisdiction and a modification of terms, we conclude that the district court did not
abuse its discretion in denying his motion. See 18 U.S.C. § 3605 (sentencing court
may transfer jurisdiction over person on supervised release to another district court
with concurrence of that court); see also United States v. Henkel, 358 F.3d 1013,
1015 (8th Cir. 2004) (noting that prisoner may apply to district court for appropriate
modification under 18 U.S.C. § 3583(e)(2) upon release).
