Martha Ituarte-Olivas v. Eric H. Holder Jr.
Martha Ituarte-Olivas v. Eric H. Holder Jr.
Opinion
MEMORANDUM **
Martha Ituarte-Olivas, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order denying her motion to reopen removal proceedings. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We deny the petition for review.
In her opening brief, Ituarte-Olivas fails to address, and therefore has waived any challenge to, the BIA’s determination that it lacked jurisdiction to consider the motion to reopen where jurisdiction lay with the immigration judge. See Martinez-Serrano v. INS, 94 F.3d 1256, 1259-60 (9th Cir. 1996) (issues not specifically raised and argued in a party’s opening brief are waived).
In light of this disposition, we do not reach Ituarte-Olivas’ remaining contentions.
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
