Ricardo Salas-Hernandez v. Loretta E. Lynch

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit
Ricardo Salas-Hernandez v. Loretta E. Lynch, 668 F. App'x 302 (9th Cir. 2016)

Ricardo Salas-Hernandez v. Loretta E. Lynch

Opinion

MEMORANDUM **

Ricardo Salas-Hernandez, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions pro se for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ order dismissing his appeal from an immigration judge’s (“IJ”) order granting post-conclusion voluntary departure. We dismiss the petition for review.

We lack jurisdiction to consider Salas-Hernandez’ unexhausted contentions that his former counsel provided ineffective assistance, and that the IJ forced his former counsel to withdraw Salas-Hernandez’ application for cancellation of removal. See Tijani v. Holder, 628 F.3d 1071, 1080 (9th Cir. 2010) (the court lacks jurisdiction to consider legal claims not presented in an alien’s administrative proceedings before the agency).

PETITION FOR REVIEW DISMISSED.
