Docket

*1 Before WILKINSON, AGEE, and DIAZ, Circuit Judges.

Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Curtis Lee Rucker, Jr., Appellant Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

PER CURIAM:

Curtis Lee Rucker, Jr., appeals the district court’s order denying his motion for release to home confinement under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act, Pub. L. No. 116-136, § 12003(b)(2), 134 Stat. 281, 516 (2020) (“CARES Act”). The district court correctly concluded that it lacked the authority to grant Rucker the requested relief because, “under the CARES Act, the Attorney General[] has plenary control over [federal] inmates’ placement.” United States v. Saunders , 986 F.3d 1076, 1078 (7th Cir. 2021). We therefore affirm the district court’s order. United States v. Rucker , No. 5:18- cr-00057-KBD-DCK-1 (W.D.N.C. June 5, 2020). 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.

AFFIRMED
