MEMORANDUM **

Simon Antonio Olivares and Maria Eleuteria Olivares, natives and citizens of Mexico, petition pro se for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ denial of Simon Olivares’s motion to reopen removal proceedings. The Board denied the motion as numerically barred under 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(c)(2). Our jurisdiction is governed by 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We deny the petition for review.

The petitioners do not challenge the Board’s ruling that their motion to reopen was numerically barred. Rather, they contend that they should be granted cancellation of removal. They also imply that Simon Olivares is eligible for adjustment of status to lawful permanent resident under 8 U.S.C. § 1255.

The petitioners have waived any challenge to the Board’s dispositive ruling that their motion to reopen was numerically barred by failing to address that ruling in their opening brief. See Martinez-Serrano v. INS, 94 F.3d 1256, 1259-60 (9th Cir. 1996). We lack jurisdiction to consider issues not raised in the petitioners’ motion to reopen and thus not exhausted before the Board. See Barron v. Ashcroft, 358 F.3d 674, 677 (9th Cir. 2004).

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
