U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, 2001

Achonu v. Immigration & Naturalization Service

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit · Decided March 28, 2001 · Kozinski, Tallman, Zapata

11 F. App'x 767

Opinion of the Court

MEMORANDUM ***

Aehonu has presented no evidence that the deportation order entered against him in 1984 was defective, and we thus reject his contention that he was improperly placed in exclusion proceedings. Because Aehonu was properly placed in exclusion proceedings upon his attempted re-entry into the United States, the BIA lacked jurisdiction to entertain his motion to reopen the prior deportation proceedings. See 8 C.F.R. § 3.2(d).

DENIED.
