AFFIRMED.

PER CURIAM.

The defendant-appellant, Jorge Baez-Ortega, appeals his conviction for illegal entry of a deported alien under 8 U.S.C. § 1326(b)(2). He claims that he did not validly waive his right to appeal the underlying deportation order. After carefully reviewing the parties' briefs and the entire record, and for substantially the reasons set forth in the district court opinion, see United States v. Baez-Ortega, 906 F.Supp. 740 (D.P.R.1995), we affirm.

Affirmed. See Loc. R. 27.1.
