Lapa-Alzamora v. Ashcroft
Opinion of the Court
MEMORANDUM
Victor Donato Lapa-Alzamora and Sole-dad Peinado Lazo, natives and citizens of Peru, petition for review of the decision of the Board of Immigration Appeals, affirming without opinion the immigration judge’s (“IJ”) denial of their applications for withholding of removal under 8 U.S.C. § 1231(b)(3).

PETITION DENIED.
This disposition is not appropriate for publication and may not be cited to or by the courts of this circuit except as provided by Ninth Circuit Rule 36-3.
. Petitioners do not challenge the IJ’s denial of asylum as time-barred under 8 U.S.C. § 1158(a)(2)(B), or the denial of relief under the Convention Against Torture.
