PER CURIAM. The dispositive issue in this case — whether
a Notice to Appear that fails to include the time and place of a
removal hearing is ineffective as a charging document and therefore
does not confer jurisdiction on an immigration court — is
controlled by the court's recent decision in Goncalves Pontes v.
Barr, 938 F.3d 1 (1st Cir. 2019). Under the holding in Goncalves
Pontes, see id. at 5-7, the petitioner's claims necessarily fail.
Accordingly, we summarily deny the petition for judicial review.
See 1st Cir. R. 27.0(c).
So ordered.
