E.D.N.C.
AFFIRMED.
Before ERVIN, Chief Judge, and PHILLIPS and WILLIAMS, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:
Geremew and Latarsha Zeleke brought this action seeking to enjoin the INS from deporting Mr. Zeleke. Upon denial of their request for a preliminary injunction, the Zelekes sought review in this court. Because the issues in this case were essentially indistinguishable from those presented in Joseph v. INS, No. 92-1641 (4th Cir., 1993) (unpublished), we consolidated the two cases for purposes of oral argument. After careful review of the record in the Zelekes' case, we conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion in denying their request for a preliminary injunction for the reasons stated in Joseph v. INS.
AFFIRMED
