Moran Tapia v. Gonzales
Moran Tapia v. Gonzales
Opinion of the Court
MEMORANDUM
This is a petition for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order adopting and affirming an Immigration Judge’s order denying petitioners’ applications for cancellation of removal.
The motion to proceed in forma pauperis is granted. The Clerk shall amend the docket to reflect this status.
We have reviewed the response to the court’s March 15, 2007 order to show cause, and we conclude that petitioner Fla-via Margarita Moran Tapia, A97-361-235, has failed to raise a colorable constitutional or legal claim to invoke our jurisdiction over this petition for review. See Torres-Aguilar v. INS, 246 F.3d 1267, 1271 (9th Cir. 2001). Accordingly, the court sua sponte dismisses this petition for review for lack of jurisdiction with respect to petitioner Moran Tapia. See 8 U.S.C. § 1252(a)(2)(B)(i); Romero-Torres v. Ashcroft, 327 F.3d 887, 892 (9th Cir. 2003); Montero-Martinez v. Ashcroft, 277 F.3d 1137,1144 (9th Cir. 2002).
A review of the administrative record demonstrates that petitioners Mayte Berenice Ramirez Moran, A97-361-236, Jesus Ramirez Moran, A97-361-237, and Jonathan Ramirez Moran, A97-361-238, presented no evidence that they had a qualifying relative as defined in 8 U.S.C. § 1229b(b)(l)(D) at the time of their re
All other pending motions are denied as moot. The temporary stay of removal and voluntary departure confirmed by Ninth Circuit General Order 6.4(c) and Desta v. Ashcroft, 365 F.3d 741 (9th Cir. 2004), shall continue in effect until issuance of the mandate.
DISMISSED in part, DENIED in part.
This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
