Minerva Aviles-Ocampo v. Loretta E. Lynch
Opinion
MEMORANDUM **
Minerva Leticia Aviles-Ocampo, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order dismissing her appeal from an immigration judge’s order of removal. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review de novo legal claims, Simeonov v. Ashcroft, 371 F.3d 532, 535 (9th Cir. 2004), and deny the petition for review.
Aviles-Ocampo does not challenge the agency’s dispositive determination that her petty theft with priors convictions constitute crimes involving moral turpitude that render her statutorily ineligible for cancellation of removal. See 8 U.S.C. § 1229b(b)(1)(B)-(C); Rizk v. Holder, 629 F.3d 1083, 1091 n. 3 (9th Cir. 2011) (issues not raised in an opening brief are waived).
We reject Aviles-Ocampo’s contention that the BIA engaged in improper fact-finding in determining she was not eligible for cancellation of removal and declining to remand to the immigration judge.
In light of our disposition, we do not reach Aviles-Ocampo’s remaining contention regarding whether her convictions *351 constitute aggravated felonies. See Simeonov, 371 F.3d at 538.
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
This disposition is not, appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by Ninth Circuit Rule 36-3.
