Opinion

IN THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FIFTH CIRCUIT __________________ No. 00-60632 Summary Calendar __________________ LORENZO ARGUETA, Petitioner, versus IMMIGRATION AND NATURALIZATION SERVICE, Respondent.

Petition for Review of an Order of the Board of Immigration Appeals BIA No. A70-691-686 April 23, 2001 Before JOLLY, SMITH, and DeMOSS, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:* Lorenzo Argueta petitions for review of the decision of the Board of Immigration Appeals dismissing his appeal from the immigration judge’s decision to deny his application for asylum and for a withholding of deportation. He argues that the Board erred by determining that he did not have a well-founded fear of future persecution in Guatemala because of his union membership. We have reviewed the record and the briefs and determine that the Board’s decision is supported by substantial evidence. See Carbajal- Gonzalez v. INS, 78 F.3d 194, 197 (5th Cir. 1996). The petition for review is

* Pursuant to 5th Cir. Rule 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir. Rule 47.5.4.

No. -2- D E N I E D.
