   MEMORANDUM

Federal prisoner Mark Alan Lane appeals pro se from the district court’s judgment dismissing his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 habeas petition challenging the loss of good conduct time following a prison disciplinary hearing. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo the dismissal of a section 2241 petition, see Alaimalo v. United States, 645 F.3d 1042, 1047 (9th Cir.2011), and we affirm.

Lane contends that the district court erred by dismissing the instant petition on the basis of Lane’s previous section 2241 petition. Contrary to Lane’s contention, the district court did not err by applying Rule 4 of the Rules Governing Section 2254 Cases to the instant petition. See Rule 1(b), Rules Governing Section 2254 Cases, 28 U.S.C. foil. § 2254. Moreover, the district court properly dismissed the instant petition because Lane’s previous section 2241 petition raised the same claims and was denied on the merits by the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia. The abuse of the writ doctrine generally “forbids the reconsideration of claims that were or could have been raised in a prior habeas petition.” See Alaimalo, 645 F.3d at 1049 (internal quotations omitted). Lane has not shown cause for bringing a successive petition, or that a fundamental miscarriage of justice will result from the failure to entertain his claim. See McCleskey v. Zant, 499 U.S. 467, 494-95, 111 S.Ct. 1454, 113 L.Ed.2d 517 (1991).

AFFIRMED.
