Rafael Lopez-Lucio v. Eric Holder, Jr.
Rafael Lopez-Lucio v. Eric Holder, Jr.
Opinion
MEMORANDUM **
Rafael Lopez-Lucio, 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 (“D”) decision denying his motion to reopen and reconsider. *647 We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review for abuse of discretion the denial of a motion to reconsider, Cano-Merida v. INS, 311 F.3d 960, 964 (9th Cir. 2002), and review de novo constitutional claims, Ram v. INS, 243 F.3d 510, 516 (9th Cir. 2001), and we deny the petition for review.
The BIA was within its discretion in denying Lopez-Lucio’s motion to reconsider because the motion failed to identify any error of fact or law in the IJ’s underlying order pretermitting his applications for adjustment of status and cancellation of removal. See 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(b)(1); Socop-Gonzalez v. INS, 272 F.3d 1176, 1180 n. 2 (9th Cir. 2001) (en banc). Lopez-Lucio’s due process claims therefore fail. See Lata v. INS, 204 F.3d 1241, 1246 (9th Cir. 2000) (requiring error and prejudice for a due process violation).
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provid *647 ed by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
