Jairo Fernando Riascos (federal prisoner No. 05062-003) appeal

     *
        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that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent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.
                          No. 96-31305
                               -2-

the dismissal of their complaint seeking monetary damages for

alleged civil rights violations arising out of deportation

proceedings initiated by the Attorney General.   We affirm on the

alternative basis that the district court lacked subject-matter

jurisdiction to review appellants’ claim.   See 8 U.S.C.

§ 1252(g).

     AFFIRMED.
