Description
Felix M. Page, who is serving a four-year term in a federal prison, was denied parole by the United States Parole Commission. Believing that the Commission had acted incorrectly, he unsuccessfully sought relief from the regional commissioner and the National Appeals Board of the Commission. Having thus exhausted his administrative remedies, Page filed an application for habeas corpus relief under 28 U.S.C. § 2241. Adopting the report of the magistrate, the district court denied the application. We find no error in that denial and affirm the district court's decision. Page was originally indicted in federal district court in New Mexico for smuggling cocaine. He pled guilty to a lesser offense of illegally using communication facilities to facilitate an unlawful cocaine transaction in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 843(b). In return for his plea, the government dismissed the charge for which he had been indicted. The district court sentenced Page to four years imprisonment.
