Sanchez

MEMORANDUM **

Pablo Jauregui Sanchez, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order denying his motion to reconsider. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252 . We review de novo claims of constitutional violations in immigration proceedings, Colmenar v.

The BIA properly determined that remand was not warranted because the evidence Sanchez submitted did not meet the requirements of 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2 (c)(1) and did not establish a prima facie case of hardship.
