Murillo v. Mukasey

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit
Murillo v. Mukasey, 260 F. App'x 970 (9th Cir. 2007)

Murillo v. Mukasey

Opinion of the Court

MEMORANDUM **

Petitioner Jose Luis Zaragoza Murillo petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) decision dismissing his appeal and denying his application for remand to the Immigration Judge.

To the extent petitioner seeks review of the BIA’s decision not to remand petitioner’s appeal to the Immigration Judge, the petition is summarily denied because the questions raised by this petition for review are so insubstantial as not to require further argument. See United States v. Hooton, 693 F.2d 857, 858 (9th Cir. 1982) (per curiam) (stating standard).

We have reviewed the response to the court’s August 27, 2007 order to show cause, and we conclude that petitioner has failed to raise a colorable constitutional or legal claim to invoke our jurisdiction over this petition for review. See Martinez-Rosas v. Gonzales, 424 F.3d 926 (9th Cir. 2005); Torres-Aguilar v. INS, 246 F.3d 1267, 1271 (9th Cir. 2001). Accordingly, respondent’s motion to dismiss this petition for review for lack of jurisdiction is granted. 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).

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.

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED in part; DISMISSED in part.

This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
