OKIEL AUGUSTUS PARCHMENT, AKA DAVID REID Petitioner,
v. 19-3238 NAC MERRICK B. GARLAND, UNITED STATES ATTORNEY GENERAL, Respondent. _____________________________________
FOR PETITIONER: Craig Relles, Esq., White Plains, NY. FOR RESPONDENT: Joseph H. Hunt, Assistant Attorney General; Anthony C. Payne, Assis- tant Director; Jennifer A. Bowen, Trial Attorney, Office of Immigra- tion Litigation, United States De- partment of Justice, Washington, DC.
UPON DUE CONSIDERATION of this petition for review of a
Board of Immigration Appeals (“BIA”) decision, it is hereby
ORDERED, ADJUDGED, AND DECREED that the petition for review
is DISMISSED because we lack jurisdiction.
Petitioner Okiel Augustus Parchment (“Parchment”), a na-
tive and citizen of Jamaica, seeks review of a September 5,
2019 BIA decision affirming a February 22, 2018 Immigration
Judge (“IJ”) decision denying his claim for relief under the
Convention Against Torture (“CAT”). In re Okiel Augustus
Parchment, No. A073 138 794 (B.I.A. Sept. 5, 2019), aff’g No.
A073 138 794 (Immig. Ct. N.Y.C. Feb. 22, 2018).
Parchment was removed to Jamaica pursuant to a final
order of removal executed on December 17, 1998. See Cert.
Admin. R. 57-59, 67, 73-74, 112, 408–12, 443, 514–15, 534.
He illegally reentered the United States. After he was ap-
prehended, the Department of Homeland Security (“DHS”) issued
a Notice of Intent/Decision to Reinstate the prior order of 2 removal on August 9, 2016. Id. at 533-34; see
8 U.S.C. § 1231(a)(5).
Parchment then expressed a fear of returning to Jamaica
and was referred to an IJ for withholding-only proceedings.
Cert. Admin. R. 510–25; see
8 C.F.R. § 208.31. Parchment
applied for deferral of removal under the CAT. Cert. Admin.
R. 112–75. The IJ denied Parchment’s application and the BIA
affirmed on September 5, 2019.
Id.at 3–4, 48–55. Parchment
petitioned for review on October 7, 2019.
As we recently explained, we lack jurisdiction to con-
sider an illegal reentrant’s claims if he petitions for review
more than 30 days after his removal order is reinstated.
Bhaktibhai-Patel v. Garland, No. 19-2565, __ F.4th ___,
2022 WL 1230819, at *5–9 (2d Cir. Apr. 27, 2022); see
8 U.S.C. §§ 1252(a)(1), (b)(1), 1101(a)(47)(B). DHS reinstated
Parchment’s prior order of removal on August 9, 2016. He
petitioned for review more than 30 days later, on October 7,
2019. We therefore lack jurisdiction and dismiss the peti-
tion.
3 The petition for review is DISMISSED for lack of juris-
diction. All pending motions and applications are DENIED and
stays VACATED.
FOR THE COURT: Catherine O’Hagan Wolfe, Clerk of Court
