OPINION OF THE COURT

2Per curiam

Petitioner asks us to find that the Board of Immigration Appeals abused its discretion in denying him the privilege of voluntary departure and ordering him deported. The issue is important to him because the right of voluntary departure under 8 U.S.C. § 1254(e) (1970), would permit him to avoid the stigma of deportation. More importantly, it would allow him to select his own destination and would facilitate the possibility of his return to the United States. Tzantarmas v. United States, 402 F.2d 163, 165 n.1 (9th Cir. 1968).

Strantzalis entered the United States in February…
