PER CURIAM:
Segundo Walter Gonzalez-Gonzalez, a native and citizen of
Ecuador, petitions this court for review of an order of the Board
of Immigration Appeals affirming the immigration judge’s
discretionary denial of his application for adjustment of status of
nonimmigrant to that of a person admitted for permanent residence.
We have considered Gonzalez-Gonzalez’s challenge to the
discretionary denial of his application for adjustment of status
and conclude that we lack jurisdiction to review it. See 8 U.S.C.
§ 1255(a) (2000) (governing adjustment of status applications); 8
U.S.C. § 1252(a)(2)(B)(i) (2000) (“[N]o court shall have
jurisdiction to review any judgment regarding the granting of
relief under section . . . 1255 [the section governing adjustment
of status]); Velasquez-Gabriel v. Crocetti, 263 F.3d 102, 104 n.1
(4th Cir. 2001).
We accordingly dismiss the petition for review. We deny
Gonzalez-Gonzalez’s motion for stay of removal. We dispense with
oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are
adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument
would not aid the decisional process.
PETITION DISMISSED
