Pablo Marin Rojas v. Eric H. Holder Jr.

FILED NOT FOR PUBLICATION JUL 19 2010 MOLLY C. DWYER, CLERK UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS U .S. C O U R T OF APPE ALS FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT PABLO ENRIQUE MARIN ROJAS, No. 08-71500 Petitioner, Agency No. A099-051-138 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. Pablo Enrique Marin Rojas, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions pro se for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ order summarily affirming an immigration judge’s (“IJ”) removal order. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. * 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). § 1252. Reviewing de novo questions of law, Castillo-Perez v. INS, 212 F.3d 518, 523 (9th Cir. 2000), we deny the petition for review. The IJ properly concluded Rojas was statutorily ineligible for cancellation of removal because he lacks a qualifying relative. See 8 U.S.C. § 1229b(b)(1)(D); see also Molina-Estrada v. INS, 293 F.3d 1089, 1093-94 (9th Cir. 2002) (denying cancellation of removal where alien lacked a qualifying relative). Rojas’ remaining contentions are unavailing. PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED. 2 08-71500
