Before BROWNING, WRIGHT, and KILKENNY, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:
1This is a petition to review a decision by a special inquiry officer that petitioner be deported. No appeal was taken to the Board of Immigration Appeals from the special inquiry officer's decision. See 8 C.F.R. Sec. 242.21. Accordingly, the petition for review is premature, and this court lacks jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. Sec. 1105a(c). See Rodriguez-De Leon v. I&NS, 324 F.2d 311 (9th Cir. 1963); Kassab v. I&NS, 322 F.2d 824 (9th Cir. 1963). The petitioner may move to reopen the deportation hearing. 8 C.F.R. Sec. 242.22. Cf. Lee Fook Chuey v. I&NS, 439 F.2d 244 (9th Cir. 1971).
2The petition is dismissed.
