   MEMORANDUM

The record confirms that, before his trip to Mexico, Aguilar received notice that the INS had issued a final denial of his application for temporary resident status. Aguilar was not granted advance parole and later attempted to reenter the United States with an invalid entry document. The INS properly placed Aguilar in exclusion proceedings. See Landon v. Plasencia, 459 U.S. 21, 28, 103 S.Ct. 321, 74 L.Ed.2d 21 (1982).
