Geremew Zeleke Latarsha Zeleke v. U.S. Immigration & Naturalization Service, 993 F.2d 1542, 4th Cir. (1993)
2d 1542
Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of
North Carolina, at Wilmington. W. Earl Britt, District Judge. (CA-92-457-CIV-BR)
Argued: Kenneth Bedford Hatcher, Wilmington, North Carolina, for
Appellants.
Stephen Aubrey West, Assistant United States Attorney, Raleigh, North
Carolina, for Appellee.
On Brief: Margaret Person Currin, United States Attorney, Raleigh, North
Carolina, for Appellee.
E.D.N.C.
AFFIRMED.
Before ERVIN, Chief Judge, and PHILLIPS and WILLIAMS, Circuit
Judges.
PER CURIAM:
Geremew and Latarsha Zeleke brought this action seeking to enjoin the INS
from deporting Mr. Zeleke. Upon denial of their request for a preliminary
injunction, the Zelekes sought review in this court. Because the issues in this
case were essentially indistinguishable from those presented in Joseph v. INS,
No. 92-1641 (4th Cir., 1993) (unpublished), we consolidated the two cases for
purposes of oral argument. After careful review of the record in the Zelekes'
case, we conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion in denying
their request for a preliminary injunction for the reasons stated in Joseph v.
INS.
AFFIRMED
