No. 18-3181

Decided: October 16, 2019

Before GRUENDER, BENTON, and STRAS, Circuit Judges. Patrick Harding, Pro Se Matthew Lorn Hoppock, Hoppock Law Firm, LLC, Overland Park, KS, for Petitioner Elizabeth Robyn Chapman, Trial Attorney, Jennifer R. Khouri, Carl H. McIntyre, U.S. Department of Justice, Civil Division, Office of Immigration Litigation, Washington, DC, Peter B. Berg, U.S. Immigration & Naturalization Service, Bloomington, MN, for Respondent

[Unpublished]

Patrick Harding, a citizen of Trinidad and Tobago, petitions for review of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA), which rejected his assertion that the agency lacked jurisdiction to order him removed.¹ Having jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252(a)(2)(D), this court denies the petition because Harding’s challenge to the agency’s jurisdiction over his removal proceedings is foreclosed by this court’s precedent. See Ali v. Barr, 924 F.3d 983, 986 (8th Cir. 2019).

The petition is denied. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
