Respondent.
On Petition for Review of an Order of the
Board of Immigration Appeals
Submitted December 9, 2015**
Before: WALLACE, RAWLINSON, and IKUTA, Circuit Judges.

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

removal. Our jurisdiction is governed by 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review de novo
constitutional claims and questions of law, Vilchez v. Holder, 682 F.3d 1195, 1198
(9th Cir. 2012), and we deny in part and dismiss in part the petition for review.
Our jurisdiction to review the BIA’s denial of cancellation of removal as a
matter of discretion is limited to questions of law and constitutional claims, 8
U.S.C. § 1252(a)(2)(B),(D), and Estrada Olivera has not established that the BIA
used an incorrect standard or considered impermissible factors in making its
discretionary determination, see Mejia v. Gonzales, 499 F.3d 991, 999 (9th Cir.
2007). In addition, the agency did not err in relying on the 2009 police report in
evaluating his eligibility as a matter of discretion. See Espinoza v. INS, 45 F.3d
308, 310 (9th Cir. 1995) (“The sole test for admission of evidence is whether the
evidence is probative and its admission is fundamentally fair.”); Torres-Valdivias
v. Lynch, 786 F.3d 1147, 1152 (9th Cir. 2015) (“In the context of the BIA’s
discretionary decisions, we have noted that ‘it is proper [for the BIA] to look to
probative evidence outside the record of conviction . . . to determine whether a
favorable exercise of discretion is warranted.’”) (quoting Tokatly v. Ashcroft, 371
F.3d 613, 621 (9th Cir. 2004)); Lata v. INS, 204 F.3d 1241, 1246 (9th Cir. 2000)
(error is required to establish due process violation).
2 14-70257
Finally, Estrada Olivera has not established that the BIA failed to consider
his contentions on appeal. See Najmabadi v. Holder, 597 F.3d 983, 990 (9th Cir.
2010).
