Murga-Sosa

MEMORANDUM

Denia Ruth Murga-Sosa, a native and citizen of El Salvador, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ order dismissing her appeal from an immigration judge’s (“D”) decision denying her motion to reopen removal proceedings. Our jurisdiction is governed by 8 U.S.C. § 1252 . We review for abuse of discretion the denial of a motion to reopen, Singh v. INS, 295 F.3d 1037, 1039 (9th Cir.2002), and de novo questions of law, Ram v. INS, 243 F.3d 510, 516 (9th Cir.2001). We deny in part and dismiss in part the petition for review.

The agency did not abuse its discretion in denying Murga-Sosa’s second motion to reopen as numerically barred, see 8 C.F.R. § 1003.23 (b)(1) (limiting party to one motion to reopen proceedings), and concluding that Petitioner failed to establish grounds for waiving the numerical restriction, cf Varela v. INS, 204 F.3d 1237, 1240 (9th Cir.2000) (numerical limits may be waived in cases of fraud as long as the petitioner acts with due diligence).

We lack jurisdiction to consider Murga-Sosa’s contention that the IJ did not give her notice regarding the consequences of failing to depart because she failed to raise it before the agency.…
