Backari Mackey, federal prisoner # 21282-001, appeals the denial of his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 petition, which he filed to challenge his disciplinary proceeding. Mackey was convicted of use of marijuana and was sanctioned with a 30-day term of disciplinary segregation, which was suspended pending 180 days of clear conduct, loss of 40 days of good conduct time, and visitation restrictions. We review the district court’s legal conclusions de novo; factual findings are reviewed for clear error. Henson v. U.S. Bureau of Prisons, 213 F.3d 897, 898 (5th Cir.2000).
