PER CURIAM:
Anthony Chinedu Anushiem, a native and citizen of
Nigeria, petitions for review of orders of the Board of
Immigration Appeals dismissing his appeal from the Immigration
Judge’s denial of his motion to reconsider and denying his
motion to reopen and reconsider. We have reviewed the
administrative record and find that because Anushiem has been
convicted of an aggravated felony, we lack jurisdiction over the
majority of his claims. See 8 U.S.C. § 1252(a)(2)(C) (2006).
Accordingly, we dismiss the petitions for review in part with
respect to these claims. We have considered Anushiem’s
constitutional and legal claims, over which we retain
jurisdiction, and find them to be without merit. See 8 U.S.C.
§ 1252(a)(2)(D) (2006). Therefore, with respect to these
claims, we deny the petitions for review in part for the reasons
stated by the Board. See In re: Anushiem (B.I.A. Jan. 10 & Apr.
16, 2012). We deny Anushiem’s motions for appointment of
counsel and for reconsideration of the denial of his motion to
stay removal. Finally, we dispense with oral argument because
the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the
materials before the court and argument would not aid the
decisional process.
PETITIONS DISMISSED IN PART
AND DENIED IN PART
