Petitioner, Agency No. A098-174-340

v.
MEMORANDUM *
ERIC H. HOLDER, Jr., Attorney General,

Respondent.

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

Submitted June 29, 2010 **

Before: ALARCÓN, LEAVY, and GRABER, Circuit Judges.

Claudia S. Orozco-Arroyo, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions for

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

*
This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent
except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
**
The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision
without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2).
from an immigration judge’s decision denying her request for a continuance. Our

jurisdiction is governed by 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We deny the petition for review.

In her opening brief, Orozco-Arroyo fails to challenge the BIA’s dispositive

conclusion that it lacked jurisdiction because she had waived her right to appeal

pursuant to 8 C.F.R. § 1240.26(b)(1)(i)(D) in order to obtain a 120-day grant of

voluntary departure. See Martinez-Serrano v. INS, 94 F.3d 1256, 1259-60 (9th Cir.

1996) (issues not supported by argument in a party’s opening brief are deemed

waived).

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
