Ortega-Miguel

*610 MEMORANDUM ****

Justino Ortega-Miguel, Veronica Ortega, Juan Ortega, and Maria Urquiza timely petition for review of an order from the Board of Immigration Appeals (“BIA”) adopting and affirming an Immigration Judge’s (“IJ”) order denying their application for asylum, withholding of removal, and relief under the Convention Against Torture (“CAT”). This panel has jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252 . We deny the petitions.

First, Petitioners’ opening brief violates Rule 28(a)(9)(A) of the Federal Rules of Appellate Procedure by failing to include “citations to the authorities and parts of the record on which [they] rely.” The only authority in the sparse brief appears at page 5, where Petitioners cite Plyler v. Doe, 457 U.S. 202, 210 , 102 S.Ct. 2382 , 72 L.Ed.2d 786 (1982), for the familiar proposition that the protections of the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments extend to unlawfully present aliens. Petitioners cite no other legal authorities, nor do they provide citations to the record. For this reason alone, the petitions for review should be denied.

But furthermore, we reject petitioners’ contention that the case should be remanded because mistranslations may have occurred…
