Ravinder Kaur v. Eric Holder, Jr.

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit
Ravinder Kaur v. Eric Holder, Jr., 456 F. App'x 661 (9th Cir. 2011)

Ravinder Kaur v. Eric Holder, Jr.

Opinion

MEMORANDUM **

Ravinder Kaur, a native and citizen of India, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order dismissing her appeal from an immigration judge’s decision finding that her asylum application was frivolous. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review de novo due process claims, see Montes-Lopez v. Gonzales, 486 F.3d 1163, 1165 (9th Cir. 2007), and we deny the petition for review.

Kaur does not challenge the agency’s frivolousness finding, but contends the BIA erred by not considering her claims for withholding of removal and CAT relief. The BIA did not err because Kaur did not present those claims in her brief to the BIA. See Abebe v. Mukasey, 554 F.3d 1203, 1207-08 (9th Cir. 2009) (en banc) (BIA is not required to consider claims that are not raised in the brief).

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
