Opinion PER CURIAM.
2Per curiam
Petitioner, a citizen of Liberia who has resided in this country since 1969, seeks a determination that he is eligible to ask the Attorney General for discretionary relief from an order of deportation. Petitioner’s eligibility for relief turns on whether he has established a “lawful unrelinquished domicile of seven consecutive years” in accordance with § 212(c) of the Immigration and Nationality Act. 1 Because we find that the petitioner cannot satisfy this condition, we must affirm the deportation order of the Board of Immigration Appeals.
