    ERIC H. HOLDER, Jr., Attorney General,
    Respondent.
    On Petition for Review of an Order of the
    Board of Immigration Appeals
    Submitted March 8, 2011 **
    Before:        FARRIS, O’SCANNLAIN, and BYBEE, Circuit Judges.
    Maria Concepsion Sanchez De Orozco, a native and citizen of Mexico,
    petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ order dismissing her
    appeal from an immigration judge’s (“IJ”) decision denying her application for

    cancellation of removal. We have jurisdiction under 
    8 U.S.C. § 1252
    . We review
    for substantial evidence the agency’s continuous physical presence determination,
    Ibarra-Flores v. Gonzales, 
    439 F.3d 614
    , 618 (9th Cir. 2006), and review de novo
    claims of constitutional violations in immigration proceedings, Iturribarria v. INS,
    
    321 F.3d 889
    , 894 (9th Cir. 2003). We deny the petition for review.
    Substantial evidence supports the agency’s determination that Sanchez De
    Orozco did not meet the continuous physical presence requirement where the
    record includes a Notice and Order of Expedited Removal as well as other
    government documents corroborating the expedited removal. See Juarez-Ramos v.
    Gonzales, 
    485 F.3d 509
    , 511 (9th Cir. 2007) (expedited removal order interrupts an
    alien’s continuous physical presence for cancellation purposes).
    Sanchez De Orozco’s due process claim fails because the IJ properly denied
    her cancellation application on the basis that she failed to establish the requisite
    continuous physical presence. See 8 U.S.C. § 1229b(b)(1)(A); Lata v. INS, 
    204 F.3d 1241
    , 1246 (9th Cir. 2000) (requiring error for a petitioner to prevail on a due
    process claim).
    PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
