1Opinion of the Court

EASTERBROOK, Circuit Judge.

Twin sisters Umme N. Sharif and Umme S. Sharif were ordered removed to Pakistan when they failed to appear for hearings. The Sharifs did not seek judicial review in the court of appeals under 8 U.S.C. § 1252(a). A bag-and-baggage letter was issued and ignored. Later the sisters asked the district court to issue a writ of habeas corpus that would stop the INS from implementing the removal orders. The district court held that it lacked jurisdiction. 2001 WL 668958, 2001 U.S. Dist. Lexis 8475 (N.D.Ill. June 13, 2001). It was right.
