R. 36-3. ** The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2). removal order. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review de novo claims of due process violations in immigration proceedings, Vasquez-Zavala v. Ashcroft, 324 F.3d 1105, 1107 (9th Cir. 2003), and we deny the petition for review. Petitioners’ claim that the IJ violated due process by not considering their new hardship evidence fails because the BIA considered petitioners’ motion to reopen under the same standard that the IJ would have and concluded that petitioners failed to demonstrate prima facie eligibility for cancellation of removal. See Lata v. INS, 204 F.3d 1241, 1246 (9th Cir. 2000) (requiring prejudice for a petition to prevail on a due process claim). PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED. 2 07-71901
