Salmer Centeno-Marin v. Eric H. Holder Jr., 446 F. App'x 852 (9th Cir. 2011)

Salmer Centeno-Marin v. Eric H. Holder Jr.

Opinion

MEMORANDUM **

Salmer Dorian Centeno-Marin, a native and citizen of Nicaragua, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ order dismissing his appeal from an immigration judge’s decision denying his application for asylum and withholding of removal. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review for substantial evidence, Zehatye v. Gonzales, 453 F.3d 1182, 1184-85 (9th Cir. 2006), and we deny the petition for review.

Centeno-Marin does not raise any challenge to the agency’s dispositive denial of asylum as time-barred. Accordingly, we deny the petition as to his asylum claim.

Centeno-Marin contends the agency did not address his claim that the election of Daniel Ortega as president of Nicaragua could subject Centeno-Marin to persecution on account of his father’s imputed political opinion. This contention is belied by the record. Apart from this contention, Centeno-Marin does not otherwise challenge the agency’s denial of withholding of removal. Accordingly, we deny the petition as to his withholding claim.

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
