United States Seventh Circuit

Petition for review of an order of voluntary departure is denied where: 1) petitioner filed an asylum application but later withdrew it in exchange for a longer period of voluntary departure; and 2) the court lacks jurisdiction over petitioner's claim that his obligation to register pursuant to the National Security Entry-Exit Registration System led to the initiation of removal proceedings against him and violated his right to equal protection of the laws.
