Petition for Review of an Order of the
Board of Immigration Appeals
BIA No. A78-999-846

Before KING, HIGGINBOTHAM, and GARZA, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Mian Ihsan Ullah petitions for review of the Board of
Immigration Appeals’ (BIA) November 1, 2005, order adopting and
affirming the Immigration Judge’s decision finding him removable
and denying a continuance pending the adjudication of his labor
certification application. Ullah argues that the denial of a
continuance violated his rights under the Legal Immigration
Family Equity (LIFE) Act,1 principles of equal protection, 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this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except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.

the Due Process Clause. He further argues that the National
Security Entry-Exit Registration System (NSEERS) violates the
Equal Protection Clause.
We find neither an abuse of discretion nor a due process
violation in connection with the denial of a continuance pending
resolution of Ullah’s application for labor certification. Ahmed
v. Gonzales, 447 F.3d 433, 438-39 (5th Cir. 2006); Ali v.
Gonzales, 440 F.3d 678, 680-81 (5th Cir. 2006). Ullah’s
constitutional challenge to the NSEERS is similarly without
merit. Ali, 440 F.3d at 680-82.
The petition for review is DENIED.
