MEMORANDUM **

Rafael Espino, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions for review of the Department of Homeland Security’s order reinstating his 1993 in absentia deportation order under 8 U.S.C. § 1231(a)(5). We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252, and we deny the petition for review.

Espino’s collateral attack on his 1993 deportation order is foreclosed by Morales-Izquierdo v. Gonzales, 486 F.3d 484, 495-96 (9th Cir. 2007) (en banc) (“the reinstatement statute specifically precludes [petitioner] from seeking to reopen the previous removal order based on defective service or any other grounds.”)

Espino’s remaining contentions lack merit.

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
