MEMORANDUM **

Jose Dolores Mena, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions for review of the Bureau of Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s decision to reinstate his prior removal order. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review de novo claims of due process violations, Ram v. INS, 243 F.3d 510, 516 (9th Cir. 2001). We deny the petition for review.

Mena’s challenge to 8 U.S.C. § 1231(a)(5) is foreclosed by Morales-Izquierdo v. Gonzales, 486 F.3d 484, 498 (9th Cir. 2007) (en banc) (concluding that a previously removed alien who reenters the country unlawfully is not entitled to a hearing before an immigration judge on whether to reinstate a prior removal order).

Mena is precluded from applying for adjustment of status. See Padilla v. Ashcroft, 334 F.3d 921, 925 (9th Cir. 2003) (8 U.S.C. § 1231(a)(5) bars an alien who has had a removal order reinstated from adjustment of status).

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
