MEMORANDUM**
Sommouth Chanthabouly, a native and citizen of Laos, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) summary affirmance of an immigration judge’s denial of his application for asylum and withholding of deportation. Because the transitional rules apply, Kalaw v. INS, 133 F.3d 1147, 1150 (9th Cir.1997), we have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1105a(a). We deny the petition for review.
Chanthabouly’s sole contention, that the BIA’s summary affirmance without opinion violates his constitutional rights, is foreclosed by Falcon Carriche v. Ashcroft, 350 F.3d 845, 848-49 (9th Cir.2003).
Respondent’s motion to expedite is denied as moot.
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
