Tablada v. Gonzales

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit December 27, 2006

Tablada v. Gonzales, 215 F. App'x 663 (9th Cir. 2006)

Opinion of the Court

MEMORANDUM **

Elvis Anthony Tablada, a native and citizen of Belize, petitions pro se for review of an order of the Board of Immigration *664Appeals (“BIA”) dismissing as untimely his appeal from an immigration judge’s (“IJ”) removal order. Reviewing de novo, Da Cruz v. INS, 4 F.3d 721, 722 (9th Cir. 1993), we deny the petition for review.

The IJ’s order was issued on May 27, 2005 and informed Tablada that his appeal to the BIA was due by June 27, 2005. However, Tablada’s appeal was not filed until July 13, 2005. The BIA therefore correctly dismissed the appeal as untimely. See id. Accordingly, we do not reach Tablada’s merits arguments.

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
