Before RILEY, Chief Judge, MURPHY and MELLOY, Circuit Judges.

Jorge Angel Puc-Ruiz, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions for review of a Board of Immigration Appeals (“BIA”) decision dismissing his appeal from an Immigration Judge’s (“IJ”) order removing him from the United States to Mexico. Puc-Ruiz argues that the evidence of his alienage and lack of lawful status in the United States should have been suppressed because it was obtained in violation of his rights under the Fourth Amendment, Fifth Amendment, and agency regulations. PucRuiz also contends that the BIA erred in affirming the IJ’s denial of voluntary departure and erred in denying Puc-Ruiz’s motion to strike the IJ’s written decision as ultra vires. We dismiss the petition for review from the denial of voluntary departure and deny the petition for review in all other respects.
