Sandra Folchi Godoy v. Loretta E. Lynch

Opinion

MEMORANDUM ***

Sandra Winefred Folchi Godoy petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (BIA’s) summary affirmance without opinion of an Immigration Judge’s decision denying asylum, withholding of removal, and Convention Against Torture relief. Godoy did not raise before the BIA any of the issues she raises here. “[F]ail-ure to raise an issue in an appeal to the BIA constitutes a failure to exhaust remedies with respect to that question and deprives this court of jurisdiction to hear the matter.” Zara v. Ashcroft, 383 F.3d 927, 930 (9th Cir. 2004) (quoting Vargas v. U.S. Dep’t of Immigration & Naturalization, 831 F.2d 906, 907-08 (9th Cir. 1987)).

DISMISSED for lack of jurisdiction.
