We review de novo questions of law, including constitutional claims. Mohammed
v. Gonzales, 400 F.3d 785, 791-92 (9th Cir. 2005). We deny the petition for
review.
The agency did not err in admitting Silva-Mondragon’s Form I-213 where
Silva-Mondragon did not demonstrate that the Form I-213 was obtained through an
egregious violation of the Fourth Amendment. See Orhorhaghe v. INS, 38 F.3d
488, 492-93 (9th Cir. 1994). The Form I-213 was probative and Silva-Mondragon
does not claim that he was coerced into giving the information in the I-213 or that
the information it contains is incorrect. See Espinoza v. INS, 45 F.3d 308, 310 (9th
Cir. 1995) (Admission of a Form I-213 “is fair absent evidence of coercion or that
the statements are not those of the petitioner.”); see also Lopez-Chavez v. INS, 259
F.3d 1176, 1178 (9th Cir. 2001) (alienage can be proven with a properly
authenticated Form I-213).
Silva-Mondragon’s claim that he was prevented from exercising his right to
admit or deny the factual allegations and charge of removability contained in the
Notice to Appear is belied by the record, and he has not established prejudice from
the admission of the request for a prompt hearing. See Lata v. INS, 204 F.3d 1241,
1246 (9th Cir. 2000) (an alien must show error and prejudice to prevail on a due
process claim).

In light of our disposition, we need not reach Silva-Mondragon’s remaining
claim.
