Gilberto Acosta-Olivarria v. Eric Holder, Jr.

Opinion

MEMORANDUM **

Armando Rivas-Solis, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order dismissing his appeal from an immigration judge’s removal order. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review de novo questions of law, Cerezo v. Mukasey, 512 F.3d 1163, 1166 (9th Cir. 2008), and we deny the petition for review.

*922 The BIA correctly concluded that Rivas-Solis is ineligible to adjust status because he is inadmissible under 8 U.S.C. § 1182(a)(9)(C)(i)(I) for having accrued more than one year of unlawful presence in the United States and then reentering without admission. See Garfias-Rodriguez v. Holder, No. 09-72603, 702 F.3d 504, 2012 WL 5077137, at *7 (9th Cir. Oct.19, 2012) (en banc) (aliens who are inadmissible under 8 U.S.C. § 1182(a)(9)(C)(i)(I) are not eligible for adjustment of status under 8 U.S.C. § 1255©).

Rivas-Solis points to no authority to support his contention that the BIA was required to issue a precedential decision in his case.

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
