Case No.: 16-3509

Officials: BAUER, EASTERBROOK, and RIPPLE, Circuit Judges

Focus: Ineffective Remedy – Habeas Corpus Denial

Petitioner-appellant Freddie Camacho, a federal prisoner incarcerated in Oxford, Wisconsin, appeals the district court’s dismissal of his petition for a writ of habeas corpus under 28 U.S.C. § 2241. He argues that he may pursue relief under § 2241 because 28 U.S.C. § 2255 is an inadequate or ineffective remedy.
