removal. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review de novo
claims of due process violations in immigration proceedings, Sandoval-Luna v.
Mukasey, 526 F.3d 1243, 1246 (9th Cir. 2008) (per curiam), and we deny the
petition for review.
Amoles Raya’s contention that the IJ violated due process by refusing to
continue the proceedings fails because Amoles Raya did not establish “good
cause” for a continuance. See 8 C.F.R. § 1003.29; Lata v. INS, 204 F.3d 1241,
1246 (9th Cir. 2000) (requiring error for a due process violation).
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
