Mulyani v. Mukasey
Mulyani v. Mukasey
Opinion of the Court
MEMORANDUM
Lely Sri Mulyani, a native and citizen of Indonesia, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’s (“BIA”) order dismissing her appeal from an immigration judges’s (“IJ”) decision denying her application for asylum, withholding of removal, and protection under the Convention Against Torture (“CAT”). Our jurisdiction is governed by 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review for substantial evidence, Zehatye v. Gonzales, 453 F.3d 1182, 1184-85 (9th Cir. 2006), and we deny in part, grant in part, and dismiss in part the petition for review, and we remand.
The record does not compel the conclusion that Mulyani presented extraordinary circumstances to excuse her untimely filed asylum application. See 8 C.F.R. § 1208.4(a)(5); see Ramadan v. Gonzales, 479 F.3d 646, 658 (9th Cir. 2007) (per curiam). Therefore, Mulyani’s asylum claim fails.
In affirming the IJ’s denial of withholding of removal, the BIA stated that it
Mulyani’s opening brief does not make arguments challenging the IJ’s determination that she did not establish eligibility for CAT relief. See Martinez-Serrano v. INS, 94 F.3d 1256, 1259-60 (9th Cir. 1996).
We lack jurisdiction to consider Mulyani’s claim that the IJ denied her due process by precluding Mulyani from presenting her case because Mulyani failed to exhaust this claim before the BIA. See Barron v. Ashcroft, 358 F.3d 674, 678 (9th Cir. 2004) (generally requiring exhaustion of due process claims before the BIA).
Mulyani’s motion to file an amended petition for review is denied. See 8 U.S.C. § 1252(d)(1).
PETITION DENIED in part; GRANTED in part; DISMISSED in part; REMANDED.
This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
