                                 No. 19-50383

United States. He challenges the denial of his motion to dismiss the indict-
ment as invalid, contending that his initial removal order was void for the
failure of the notice to appear in the initial removal proceedings to specify a
time and date for his removal hearing. He concedes that the issue is foreclosed
by United States v. Pedroza-Rocha, 933 F.3d 490 (5th Cir. 2019), petition for
cert. filed (U.S. Nov. 6, 2019) (No. 19-6588), but he wishes to preserve it for
further review. The government moves, unopposed, for summary affirmance,
agreeing that the issue is foreclosed by Pedroza-Rocha and Pierre-Paul v. Barr,
930 F.3d 684 (5th Cir. 2019).

      In Pedroza-Rocha, 933 F.3d at 496−98 we concluded that the notice to
appear was not deficient for failure to specify a date and time for the hearing,
that any such deficiency had not deprived the immigration court of jurisdiction,
and that the petitioner could not collaterally attack his notice to appear with-
out first exhausting administrative remedies. Osorio-Abundio’s arguments
are, as he concedes, therefore foreclosed. See id. Because the government’s
position “is clearly right as a matter of law so that there can be no substantial
question as to the outcome of the case,” Groendyke Transp., Inc. v. Davis,
406 F.2d 1158, 1162 (5th Cir. 1969), the motion for summary affirmance is
GRANTED, the government’s alternative motion for an extension of time to
file a brief is DENIED, and the judgment is AFFIRMED.
