HUMBERTO CUENCA, Petitioner, v. JEFF B. SESSIONS, Attorney General, Respondent.
MEMORANDUM*
Humberto Cuenca, a native and citizen of Guatemala, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals' order dismissing his appeal from an immigration judge's decision denying his application for special rule cancellation of removal under the Nicaraguan Adjustment and Central American Relief Act (“NACARA”). We dismiss the petition for review.
To the extent Cuenca meaningfully challenges the agency's decision to deny his application for NACARA relief, we lack jurisdiction to review the agency's adverse credibility determination and its determination that Cuenca is not eligible for NACARA relief. See Ixcot v. Holder, 646 F.3d 1202, 1213-14 (9th Cir. 2011) (the court is precluded from reviewing agency's factual determination that alien is ineligible for special rule cancellation of removal under NACARA).
PETITION FOR REVIEW DISMISSED.
