Before SMITH, BARKSDALE, and EMILIO M. GARZA, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

     Miguel Angel Gallegos-Calderon (Gallegos) appeals his

conviction following a guilty plea for illegal presence in the

United States in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326.     He argues that

the indictment was defective because it failed to allege specific

intent, general intent, or an actus reus.     He also argues that

the district court erred when it denied his motion to suppress

the prior deportation because it violated due process.     He


     *
        Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined
that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent
except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.
R. 47.5.4.
                          No. 99-20981
                               -2-

acknowledges that the specific intent and due process issues are

foreclosed and raises the issues only to preserve them for

Supreme Court review.

     All of Gallegos’ contentions on appeal are foreclosed by

controlling Fifth Circuit precedent.   See United States v.

Guzman-Ocampo, 236 F.3d 233, 237-39 (5th Cir. 2000)(finding

sufficient an indictment’s allegations of general intent); United

States v. Tovias-Marroquin, 218 F.3d 455, 456-57 (5th

Cir.)(holding that § 1326 does not establish a status offense

that improperly punishes defendant in absence of an actus reus),

cert. denied, 121 S. Ct. 670 (2000); United States v. Benitez-

Villafuerte, 186 F.3d 651 (5th Cir. 1999)(holding that

administrative deportation proceedings do not violate due

process), cert. denied, 120 S. Ct. 838 (2000); United States v.

Trevino-Martinez, 86 F.3d 65, 68-69 (5th Cir. 1996)(holding that

§ 1326 does not require proof of specific intent).   Accordingly,

Gallegos’ conviction and sentence are AFFIRMED.
