ORDER^*

Section 440(a) of the Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act of 1996 ("AEDPA"), 8 U.S.C. 1105a(a) (10), precludes judicial review of final orders of deportation, including motions to reopen deportation proceedings to apply for discretionary relief, of aliens convicted of certain criminal offenses. Sarmadi v. INS, 121 F.3d 1319, 1322 (9th Cir. 1997); Duldulao v. INS, 90 F.3d 396, 399 (9th Cir. 1996). Petitioner Raul Perez-Verduzco was found deportable for being convicted of a controlled substance violation. See 8 U.S.C. 1227(a) (2) (B) (i). We, therefore, dismiss this petition for lack of jurisdiction.

The panel finds this case appropriate for submission without argument pursuant to Fed. R. App. P. 34(a) and Ninth Circuit Rule 34-4

This disposition is not appropriate for publication and may not be cited to or by the courts of this circuit except as provided by Ninth Circuit Rule 36-3
