UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
Plaintiff - Appellee,
versus
ROQUE DeJESUS-MEJIA,
Defendant - Appellant.
Appeal from the United States District Court
For the Southern District of Texas
District Court Number B-99-CR-129-1
June 26, 2000
Before JOLLY, DAVIS, and EMILIO M. GARZA, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Roque DeJesus-Mejia appeals his conviction for illegal reentry into the United States in
violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326 (a) and (b). As he concedes, we have previously rejected both of his
appellate arguments. His argument that the district court erred when it denied his motion to dismiss

his indictment because his prior removal was in violation of due process of law is foreclosed by our
decision in United States v. Benitez-Villafuerte, 186 F.3d 651, 658-60 (5th Cir. 1999), cert. denied,
120 S. Ct . 838 (2000). His argument that the indictment was defective because it failed to allege
specific intent to commit the offense with which he is charged is foreclosed by our decision in United
States v. Ortegon-Uvalde, 179 F.3d 956, 959 (5th Cir.), cert. denied, 120 S. Ct. 433 (1999).
AFFIRMED.
