    Gordon O. HOFF, Sr., Petitioner-Appellant, v. Harley G. LAPPIN, Director of B.O.P., Respondent-Appellee.
    No. 07-1519.
    United States Court of Appeals, Tenth Circuit.
    Feb. 21, 2008.
    Gordon O. Hoff, Sr., Florence, CO, pro se.
    Before KELLY, ANDERSON, and McCONNELL, Circuit Judges.
    
    
      
       After examining the briefs and the appellate record, this three-judge panel has determined unanimously that oral argument would not be of material assistance in the determination of this appeal. See Fed. R.App. P. 34(a); 10th Cir. R. 34.1(G). The cause is therefore ordered submitted without oral argument.
    
   ORDER AND JUDGMENT

PAUL J. KELLY, JR., Circuit Judge.

Gordon Hoff, a federal inmate proceeding pro se, appeals the district court’s denial of mandamus relief and his motion to transfer, and dismissal of this action. Mr. Hoff filed a “Petition for Writ of Mandamus” requesting the district court to compel Respondent to alter his sentence. The magistrate judge directed Mr. Hoff to file his pleading on the court’s current form and pay the filing fee or seek leave to proceed in forma pauperis, warning him that the action would be dismissed if these deficiencies were not cured. Mr. Hoff then filed a “Motion Under 28 U.S.C. § 1631” requesting the district court to transfer the action to this court. The district court denied this motion as improper and dismissed the action for failing to cure the deficiencies. Hoff v. Lappin, No. 07-2136, 2007 WL 4269043 (D.Colo. Nov. 30, 2007).

Mr. Hoff was convicted in the Western District of Wisconsin and his conviction was affirmed on appeal. United States v. Meyer, 157 F.3d 1067 (7th Cir.1998). He unsuccessfully sought relief in this circuit under 28 U.S.C. § 2241 for claims similar to those raised here. Hoff v. Rios, No. 06-1497, Order (10th Cir. May 2, 2007). Mr. Hoffs appeal is frivolous — as has been stated many times, the Colorado federal district court lacks jurisdiction over these claims. Because Mr. Hoff has failed to raise a non-frivolous argument as required by 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B)©, we DENY Mr. Hoffs request to proceed on appeal in forma pauperis and DISMISS the appeal. 
      
       This order and judgment is not binding precedent, except under the doctrines of law of the case, res judicata, and collateral estoppel. It may be cited, however, for its persuasive value consistent with Fed. R.App. P. 32.1 and 10th Cir. R. 32.1.
