Garcia Garcia v. Gonzales

MEMORANDUM***

*560Juan Jose Garda Garda and his wife Luz Irene Romero, natives and dtizens of Mexico, petition for review from the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) summary affirmance without opinion of an immigration judge’s (“IJ”) denial of cancellation of removal. We dismiss the petition for review for lack of jurisdiction.

Garcia and Romero claim that they were denied a full and fair hearing because the IJ failed (i) adequately to explain what petitioners must prove to qualify for cancellation of removal and (ii) fully to develop the record. Because petitioners failed to raise these issues before the BIA, we lack jurisdiction to consider them on appeal. See Barron v. Ashcroft, 358 F.3d 674, 677-78 (9th Cir.2004) (noting that the exhaustion requirement applies to claim that alien was denied a full and fair hearing); see also Zara v. Ashcroft, 383 F.3d 927, 931 (9th Cir.2004) (recognizing that the exhaustion requirement applies to streamlined decisions).

The voluntary departure period having been stayed, that stay will expire upon issuance of the mandate. See Desta v. Ashcroft, 365 F.3d 741, 750 (9th Cir.2004).

PETITION FOR REVIEW DISMISSED.
