MEMORANDUM **

Jorge Martin Ruiz-Lopez, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions pro se for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ order dismissing his appeal from an immigration judge’s (“IJ”) decision denying his application for suspension of deportation. We dismiss the petition for review.

We lack jurisdiction to consider Ruiz-Lopez’s unexhausted contention that the IJ coerced him into accepting a continuance in violation of his due process rights. See Tijani v. Holder, 628 F.3d 1071, 1080 (9th Cir. 2010).

PETITION FOR REVIEW DISMISSED.
