Summary Calendar
SAROWAR HOSEN MOHAMMAD,
Petitioner,
versus
ALBERTO R. GONZALES, U.S. ATTORNEY GENERAL,
Respondent.
--------------------
Petition for Review of an Order of the
Board of Immigration Appeals
BIA No. A79 011 679
--------------------
Before BARKSDALE, STEWART, and CLEMENT, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Sarowar Hosen Mohammad petitions for review of the decision
of the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA). For the reasons that
follow, the petition for review is denied.
Mohammad challenges the denial of his motion for a
continuance. Both the Immigration Judge and the BIA determined
that Mohammad’s pending application for labor certification did
not constitute good cause to continue the removal proceedings.
*
Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined that
this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except
under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR. R. 47.5.4.
No. 05-60276

This determination was not an abuse of discretion. See Ahmed v.
Gonzales, ___ F.3d ___, 2006 WL 1064196, *5 (5th Cir. Apr. 24,
2006).
Mohammad also argues that any information obtained through
the National Security Entry/Exit Registration System (NSEERS)
should have been excluded from removal proceedings because NSEERS
is unconstitutional. Even assuming that NSEERS is
unconstitutional and that suppression is an appropriate remedy,
Mohammad is not entitled to relief. Mohammad has not identified
any particular piece of information that should have been
suppressed. Additionally, his admission to the facts contained
in the notice to appear established that he was subject to
removal. Accordingly, he has failed to establish prejudice, and
any error is harmless. See Ali v. Gonzales, 440 F.3d 678, 680-81
(5th Cir. 2006).
Mohammad next argues that the information obtained through
his NSEERS interview should be suppressed because it was obtained
in violation of the safeguards established in 8 C.F.R. § 287.3.
Mohammad has not established that a violation of § 287.3
occurred, nor has he established that suppression is an
appropriate remedy for a violation of that regulation.
Nevertheless, assuming that § 287.3 was violated and suppression
is an appropriate remedy, Mohammad fails to establish prejudice.
Accordingly, he is not entitled to relief. See Ali, 440 F.3d at
682.
No. 05-60276

Finally, Mohammad asks this court to declare that he remains
eligible for relief from the Immigration Court based on his
contention that a timely petition for review tolls the voluntary
departure period. We decline to do so. See id.
The petition for review is DENIED.
