Juliyanti Sitorus v. Eric H. Holder Jr.
Juliyanti Sitorus v. Eric H. Holder Jr.
Opinion
MEMORANDUM **
Juliyanti Frida Sitorus, a native and citizen of Indonesia, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ order dismissing her appeal from an immigration judge’s decision denying her application for withholding of removal. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review for substantial evidence, Wakkary v. Holder, 558 F.3d 1049, 1056 (9th Cir. 2009), and we deny the petition for review.
Substantial evidence supports the agency’s determination that Sitorus’s experiences, including a physical assault in 1987 and her brother’s death from mob violence in 1998, even considered cumula *660 tively, did not rise to the level of persecution. See Nagoulko v. INS, 333 F.3d 1012, 1016-18 (9th Cir. 2003). Substantial evidence also supports the agency’s finding that, even as a member of a disfavored group, Sitorus failed to demonstrate a clear probability of future persecution because she did not establish sufficient individualized risk. See Hoxha v. Ashcroft, 319 F.3d 1179, 1184-85 (9th Cir. 2003); see also Wakkary, 558 F.3d at 1061-62, 1066 (“An applicant for withholding of removal will need to adduce a considerably larger quantum of individualized-risk evidence to prevail ... ”). Accordingly, Sitorus’s withholding of removal claim fails.
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
