Petition for review challenging denial of petitioner's request to continue removal proceedings in order to permit adjudication of his pending application for labor certification is denied as it does not constitute an abuse of discretion for an IJ to decline to grant multiple continuances in order to permit adjudication of a removable alien's pending labor certification.
