NOT FOR PUBLICATION FILED UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS MAY 23 2025 MOLLY C. DWYER, CLERK U.S. COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT

MARIA MORENO-GAMEZ, No. 21-200 Agency No. Petitioner, A209-938-022 v. MEMORANDUM* PAMELA BONDI, Attorney General,

Respondent.

On Petition for Review of an Order of the Board of Immigration Appeals

Submitted May 21, 2025**

Before: SILVERMAN, LEE, and VANDYKE, Circuit Judges.

Maria Moreno-Gamez, a native and citizen of El Salvador, petitions pro se

for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order dismissing her

appeal from an immigration judge’s decision denying her motion to reopen and

terminate removal proceedings. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We

* This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by Ninth Circuit Rule 36-3. ** The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2). deny the petition for review.

Moreno-Gamez’s contentions regarding exceptional circumstances and lack

of notice are not properly before the court because she did not raise them before

the BIA. See 8 U.S.C. § 1252(d)(1) (administrative remedies must be exhausted);

see also Santos-Zacaria v. Garland, 598 U.S. 411, 417-19 (2023) (section

1252(d)(1) is not jurisdictional).

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
