                             Petition for Review:
                         Board of Immigration Appeals
                            BIA No. A70 675 390
            __________________________________________________

Before REAVLEY, WIENER and BENAVIDES, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

            We conclude that the BIA’s interpretation of 8 C.F.R. § 1245(a) is

reasonable and thus worthy of deference. See Hamdan v. INS, 98 F.3d 183, 185

(5th Cir. 1996). We therefore deny review of the BIA’s order of removal.

Review is DENIED.

      *
         Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the Court has determined that this opinion
should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances
set forth in 5TH CIR. R. 47.5.4.
