Parra-Romero v. Gonzales

Opinion

PER CURIAM: *

Sergio Parra-Romero, a native and citizen of Mexico, appeals the decision of the Board of Immigration Appeals affirming without opinion the Immigration Judge’s denial of his application for cancellation of removal under 8 U.S.C. § 1229b. Because cancellation of removal is governed by § 1229b, the jurisdictional bar of 8 U.S.C. *374 § 1252(a)(2)(B)(i) applies in the instant case. This court lacks jurisdiction to review the Attorney General’s discretionary decision regarding cancellation of removal. See Rueda v. Ashcroft, 380 F.3d 831, 831 (5th Cir . 2004); § 1229b(b); § 1252(a)(2)(B)(i). The petition for review is DISMISSED.

*

Pursuant to 5th Cir. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.
