Zepeda Campos v. Holder

Opinion of the Court

MEMORANDUM **

Martin Zepeda Campos, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions pro se for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order dismissing his appeal from an immigration judge’s decision denying his application for cancellation of removal under 8 U.S.C. § 1229b(b). We dismiss the petition for review.

We lack jurisdiction to review the BIA’s discretionary determination that Zepeda Campos failed to show exceptional and extremely unusual hardship to his qualifying relatives. See 8 U.S.C. § 1252(a)(2)(B). Zepeda Campos’s contention that the BIA violated his due process rights by disregarding his evidence of hardship does not amount to a colorable constitutional claim. See Martinez-Rosas v. Gonzales, 424 F.3d 926, 930 (9th Cir. 2005) (“[TJraditional abuse of discretion challenges recast as alleged due process violations do not constitute colorable constitutional claims that would invoke our jurisdiction.”).

PETITION FOR REVIEW DISMISSED.

This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provid*740ed by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
