Lead Opinion
MEMORANDUM **
This is a petition for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order adopting and affirming an Immigration Judge’s order denying petitioners’ applications for cancellation of removal.
Upon review of the record, respondent’s motion to dismiss is also construed as a motion for summary disposition with respect to petitioner Angel Emanuel Reyes Valdez, A96-362-856.
We have reviewed the opposition to the motion to dismiss this petition for review for lack of jurisdiction, and we conclude that petitioners Teodomiro Reyes Valdez, A96-362-854, and Antonia Valdez de Reyes, A96-362-855, have failed to raise a colorable constitutional or legal claim to invoke our jurisdiction over this petition for review. See Torres-Aguilar v. INS, 246 F.3d 1267, 1271 (9th Cir.2001). Accordingly, respondent’s motion to dismiss this petition for review for lack of jurisdiction is granted with respect to petitioners Teodomiro Reyes Valdez and Antonia Valdez de Reyes. See 8 U.S.C. § 1252 (a)(2)(B)(i); Romero-Torres v. Ashcroft, 327 F.3d 887, 892 (9th Cir.2003); Montero-Martinez v. Ashcroft, 277 F.3d 1137, 1144 (9th Cir.2002).
