Sison v. Gonzales
Sison v. Gonzales
Opinion of the Court
MEMORANDUM
Mario Maglaque Sisón and Vivian Monique Sisón, husband and wife, seek review
We lack jurisdiction to review the discretionary determination that petitioners failed to show exceptional and extremely unusual hardship to a qualifying relative. See Romero-Torres v. Ashcroft, 827 F.3d 887, 892 (9th Cir. 2003). We deny petitioners claim that the hardship standard and jurisdictional provisions deprive them of due process. See Munoz v. Ashcroft, 339 F.3d 950, 954 (9th Cir. 2003) (“Since discretionary relief is a privilege created by Congress, denial of such relief cannot violate a substantive interest protected by the Due Process clause.”)
To the extent petitioners contend that the BIA failed to consider the evidence they submitted with their motion to augment the record, they have not overcome the presumption that the BIA did review the record. See Fernandez v. Gonzales, 439 F.3d 592, 603 (9th Cir. 2006).
PETITION FOR REVIEW DISMISSED in part and DENIED in part.
