Before HIGGINBOTHAM, BARKSDALE, and STEWART, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

     Albri Amaya-Matamoros appeals his conviction following a

bench trial for illegal reentry after deportation in violation of

8 U.S.C. § 1326(a) & (b)(2).    He argues that the district court

erred in denying his motion to suppress his prior deportation and

     *
        Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 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that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent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.
R. 47.5.4.
