Gutierrez v. Keisler , 250 F. App'x 796 ( 2007 )

MEMORANDUM ^***

This is a petition for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order adopting and affirming an Immigration Judge’s order denying petitioner’s application for cancellation of removal.

A review of the administrative record demonstrates that petitioner has presented no evidence that she has a qualifying relative as defined in 8 U.S.C. § 1229b(b)(1)(D). See Molina-Estrada v. INS, 293 F.3d 1089, 1093-94 (9th Cir. 2002). The BIA therefore correctly concluded that, as a matter of law, petitioner was ineligible for cancellation of removal.

Further, the administrative record demonstrates petitioner cannot meet the requisite ten year continuous physical presence requirement because she departed from the United States for a period exceeding 180 days as defined in 8 U.S.C. § 1229b(d)(2). The BIA therefore correctly concluded that, as a matter of law, petitioner was ineligible for cancellation of removal on this ground as well.

Accordingly, respondent’s unopposed motion for summary disposition is granted because the questions raised by this petition for review are so insubstantial as not to require further argument. See United States v. Hooton, 693 F.2d 857, 858 (9th Cir.1982) (per curiam).

The temporary stay of removal and voluntary departure confirmed by Ninth Circuit General Order 6.4(c) and Desta v. Ashcroft, 365 F.3d 741 (9th Cir.2004), shall continue in effect until issuance of the mandate.

All other pending motions are denied as moot.

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
