Miguel Ochoa-Fuentes v. Loretta E. Lynch

Opinion

MEMORANDUM **

Miguel Angel Ochoa-Fuentes, 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 (“IJ”) order of removal. We dismiss the petition for review.

We lack jurisdiction to review the BIA’s discretionary denial of cancellation of removal for failure to establish the requisite hardship, see 8 U.S.C. § 1252(a)(2)(B)(i); Mendez-Castro v. Mukasey, 552 F.3d 975, 978 (9th Cir. 2009), and Ochoa-Fuentes has not set forth a colorable constitutional claim or question of law that would invoke our jurisdiction, see Mendez-Castro, 552 F.3d at 978 (any challenge to an IJ’s discretionary determination must present a colorable constitutional claim or question of law in order for this court to exercise jurisdiction).

PETITION FOR REVIEW DISMISSED.
