NOT FOR PUBLICATION FILED UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS AUG 22 2018 MOLLY C. DWYER, CLERK U.S. COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT JESUS TEJEDA CRUZ, AKA Jesus Cruz No. 16-71815 Tejeda, Agency No. A089-267-927 Petitioner, v. MEMORANDUM* JEFFERSON B. SESSIONS III, Attorney General, Respondent.

On Petition for Review of an Order of the Board of Immigration Appeals Submitted August 15, 2018** Before: FARRIS, BYBEE, and N.R. SMITH, Circuit Judges.

Jesus Tejeda Cruz, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ order dismissing his appeal from an immigration judge’s denial of voluntary departure and administrative closure. Our jurisdiction is governed by 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We dismiss in part and deny in part the petition for

Absent a colorable question of law or constitutional claim, we lack jurisdiction to review the agency’s determination that Tejeda Cruz failed to merit voluntary departure as a matter of discretion. See 8 U.S.C. § 1229c(f); Corro- Barragan v. Holder, 718 F.3d 1174, 1177 (9th Cir. 2013) (the court’s jurisdiction over challenges to the agency’s discretionary voluntary departure determination is limited to constitutional claims or questions of law).

Tejeda Cruz establishes no error in the agency’s denial of administrative closure.

PETITION FOR REVIEW DISMISSED in part; DENIED in part.
