1Opinion of the Court

SHAW, District Judge.

Manijeh Khalaj appeals the district court’s 1 denial of her petition for a writ of habeas corpus. Khalaj v. Cole, No. 8:CV94-42 (D.Neb. May 13, 1994). The district court found that appellee Cole, the Omaha district director (district director) of the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS), and the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) did not abuse their discretion in denying Khalaj’s applications for stay of deportation pending a ruling by the BIA on her motion to reopen and reconsider deportation proceedings. We affirm the district court’s order.
