Weike Cheng v. Loretta E. Lynch

Opinion

MEMORANDUM **

Abraham Hernandez Carbajal, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ order dismissing his appeal from an immigration judge’s decision denying his application for protection under the Convention Against Torture (“CAT”). We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review for substantial evidence the agency’s factual findings. Wakkary v. Holder, 558 F.3d 1049, 1056 (9th Cir. 2009). We deny the petition for review.

Substantial evidence supports the agency’s denial of Hernandez Carbajal’s CAT claim because he failed to establish it is more likely than not he would be tortured by or with the consent or acquiescence of the government if returned to Mexico. See Silaya v. Mukasey, 524 F.3d 1066, 1073 (9th Cir. 2008). We reject Hernandez Carbajal’s contention that the agency failed to consider all his evidence or improperly analyzed his case.

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
