PER CURIAM:
OPINION
Norman Allen Ayers petitions this Court to exercise its original jurisdiction, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241(a) (1988), over his application for a writ of habeas corpus as to his Maryland state conviction. We decline to entertain Ayers' application and transfer it to the United States District Court for the District of Maryland for disposition.* 28 U.S.C. § 2241(b) (1988). We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the Court and argument would not aid the decisional process.
APPLICATION FOR WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS TRANSFERRED
We defer to the district court's disposition of Ayers' motion to proceed in forma pauperis
