SHERIDAN, Chief Judge.
Preston DeWitt Wiley, a federal prisoner presently incarcerated at Allen-wood Federal Prison, Montgomery, Pennsylvania, filed a petition for a writ of habeas corpus in which he challenges the regulations and procedures utilized by the United States Board of Parole in determining parole eligibility and in which he contends that the Board’s decision denying him his immediate release on parole is unlawful. A petition for a writ of habeas corpus is a proper method for challenging denial of parole. 28 U.S.C.A. § 2241; Lupo v. Norton, D.Conn.1974, 371 F.Supp. 156.
