Fabiola Chino Tecongo, E.J.C.C., Appellants Pro Se. Lynda Do, Ann M. Welhaf, UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE, Washington, D.C., for Respondent. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM: Fabiola Chino Tecongo and her minor child, natives and citizens of Mexico, petition for review of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals (Board) declining to consider their appeal by certification pursuant to 8 C.F.R. § 1003.1(c) (2021) and dismissing the appeal as untimely. Because we lack jurisdiction to review the Board’s refusal to exercise its discretionary authority to certify the case, we dismiss the petition for review. See Abdulla v. Att’y Gen., 971 F.3d 409, 414 (3d Cir. 2020) (“[C]oncluding that, as a general matter, we lack jurisdiction to review the BIA’s decision not to self-certify an appeal” and collecting cases). We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before this court and argument would not aid the decisional process. PETITION DISMISSED 2 20-2387 Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit ca4 4th Cir. Fabiola Chino Tecongo v. Merrick Garland 13 October 2021 Unpublished f17469f61f63d0a2c10d7cee7d7ddf18fe748d52
