Ramirez-Velasquez

MEMORANDUM **

Rosa Ramirez-Velasquez, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order dismissing her appeal from an immigration judge’s decision denying her motion to reopen and rescind a prior deportation order and terminate removal proceedings.
