Dommernick Brown, Appellant Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

PER CURIAM:

Dommernick Brown, a federal prisoner, appeals the district

court’s order dimissing his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 (2012) petition

without prejudice. The district court referred this case to a

magistrate judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B) (2012).

The magistrate judge recommended that the § 2241 petition be

dismissed without prejudice and advised Brown that failure to

file timely, specific objections to this recommendation could

waive appellate review of a district court order based upon the

recommendation. The district court found that no objections

were filed and dismissed the § 2241 petition. The record

discloses, however, that Brown filed timely objections to the

magistrate judge’s report. The objections were mistakenly

construed as a notice of appeal of the district court’s order

because they were received after entry of that order.

We accordingly vacate the district court’s order and remand

for consideration of Brown’s timely objections. * We dispense

with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are

*

We have construed Brown’s informal brief as a timely

notice of appeal. See Fed. R. App. P. 4(a)(1)(B); Smith v.

Barry, 502 U.S. 244, 248-49 (1992).

adequately presented in the materials before this court and
