Opinion

MEMORANDUM **

Dennis Renee Lanza-Banegas, a native and citizen of Honduras, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order dismissing his appeal from an immigration judge’s (“IJ”) order granting him pre-conclusion voluntary departure. We dismiss the petition for review.

We lack jurisdiction to review Lanza-Banegas’ unexhausted contention that his waiver of appeal before the IJ was not knowing and intelligent. See Tijani v. Holder, 628 F.3d 1071, 1080 (9th Cir. 2010) , (no jurisdiction to review legal claims not presented in the petitioner’s administrative proceedings before the BIA).

PETITION FOR REVIEW DISMISSED.

This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
