Susano-Garcia v. Gonzales
Susano-Garcia v. Gonzales
Opinion of the Court
MEMORANDUM
In these consolidated petitions, Teodoro Susano-Garcia seeks review of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals (“BIA”) dismissing his appeal from an immigration judge’s decision denying his application for cancellation of removal, and an order of the BIA denying his motion to reopen removal proceedings. To the extent we have jurisdiction, it is conferred by 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We dismiss the petition for review in No. 05-71376, and deny the petition for review in No. 05-75274.
We lack jurisdiction to review the agency’s discretionary determination that Susano-Garcia failed to show exceptional and extremely unusual hardship to a qualifying relative. See Romero-Torres v. Ashcroft, 327 F.3d 887, 892 (9th Cir. 2003). We do not consider Susano-Garcia’s contentions regarding moral character because his failure to establish hardship is dispositive.
We review for abuse of discretion the denial of a motion to reopen. Singh v. INS, 295 F.3d 1037, 1039 (9th Cir. 2002).
PETITION FOR REVIEW IN 05-71376 DISMISSED.
PETITION FOR REVIEW IN OS-75274 DENIED.
This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
