Lopez-Santiago v. Holder

Opinion

MEMORANDUM **

Pedro Lopez-Santiago, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order dismissing his appeal from an immigration judge’s (“IJ”) order denying his application for cancellation of removal. Our jurisdiction is governed by 8 U.S.C. § 1252, and we dismiss the petition for review.

We lack jurisdiction to review the IJ’s dispositive determination that Lopez-Santiago is ineligible for cancellation of removal as an alien who has been convicted of an offense under 8 U.S.C. § 1227(a)(2) because Lopez-Santiago failed to exhaust this issue before the BIA. See Barron v. Ashcroft, 358 F.3d 674, 677 (9th Cir. 2004).

PETITION FOR REVIEW DISMISSED.
