SALGADO SALGADO v. SESSIONS III (2018)

MEMORANDUM **

Abraham Salgado-Salgado, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order dismissing his appeal from an immigration judge’s (“IJ”) decision denying cancellation of removal. We dismiss the petition for review.

We lack jurisdiction to consider Salgado-Salgado’s unexhausted sole contention. 8 U.S.C. § 1252(d)(1); Barron v. Ashcroft, 358 F.3d 674, 678 (9th Cir. 2004). Salgado-Salgado contends that the IJ’s failure to allow him to submit updated hardship evidence prior to issuing the removal order constituted a due process violation and a violation of 8 U.S.C § 1229a(b)(4)(B); however, Salgado-Salgado failed to adequately raise this contention in his brief to the BIA. See Young v. Holder, 697 F.3d 976, 982 (9th Cir. 2012) (en banc), abrogated in part on other grounds by Moncrieffe v. Holder, 569 U.S. 184, 133 S.Ct. 1678, 185 L.Ed.2d 727 (2013) (“Presenting an argument to the BIA requires reasoning sufficient to put the BIA on notice that it was called on to decide the issue. A general challenge to the IJ’s decision is insufficient; the alien must specify particular issues on appeal to the BIA.” (citation omitted) ).

PETITION FOR REVIEW DISMISSED.
