                                     Petitioner,

                                          v.

                                          ___________
                                   Stahl and Lynch,
                                   Circuit Judges.
                                   ______________
                              _________________________

                                    ORDER OF COURT

                               Entered  August 28, 1997

               The  INS contends  that the  appropriate court  in  which to
          raise  a   constitutional  or   jurisdictional  challenge   to  a
          deportation  order is  the court of  appeals in the  context of a
          petition for  judicial review, rather than the  district court in
          the  context of  a habeas  petition.   Consequently, the  INS has
          moved  for reconsideration  of our  April 17,  1997 order,  which
          dismissed petitioner's petition  for judicial review for  lack of
          jurisdiction, but left open the possibility that petitioner might
          be able to  obtain some review through a habeas petition filed in
          the  district court.   The  INS's position  is foreclosed  by our
          decision in Kolster v. INS, 101 F.3d 785 (1st Cir. 1996).

               The petition for rehearing is denied.

                                                  By the Court
