OPINION

FERNANDEZ, Circuit Judge.

Mauro Vargas-Garcia, a citizen of Mexico, petitions for review of the decision of the Board of Immigration Appeals which summarily dismissed his appeal of the Immigration Judge's ruling denying him suspension of deportation. See INA § 244(a)(1), 8 U.S.C. § 1254(a)(1) (repealed 1996). He argues that the BIA should not have summarily dismissed his appeal without notice. We grant the petition.
