Lopez-Rivera v. Mukasey
Opinion of the Court
MEMORANDUM
Maria Del Socorro Lopez-Rivera seeks review of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals upholding an immigration
We lack jurisdiction to review the IJ’s discretionary determination that Lopez-Rivera 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).
Lopez-Rivera’s contention that the IJ violated her due process rights by disregarding her evidence of hardship does not amount to a colorable constitutional claim. See Martinez-Rosas v. Gonzales, 424 F.3d 926, 930 (9th Cir. 2005) (“[Traditional abuse of discretion challenges recast as alleged due process violations do not constitute colorable constitutional claims that would invoke our jurisdiction.”).
We are not persuaded that Lopez-Rivera’s removal results in the deprivation of her children’s rights. See Cabrera-Alvarez v. Gonzales, 423 F.3d 1006, 1012-13 (9th Cir. 2005).
PETITION FOR REVIEW DISMISSED in part; DENIED in part.
