Oscar Hernandez-Rosas v. Merrick Garland


NOT FOR PUBLICATION FILED UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS MAY 27 2022 MOLLY C. DWYER, CLERK U.S. COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT OSCAR DOUGLAS HERNANDEZ- No. 19-72408 ROSAS, Agency No. A070-158-485 Petitioner, v. MEMORANDUM* MERRICK B. GARLAND, Attorney General, Respondent. On Petition for Review of an Order of the Board of Immigration Appeals Submitted May 17, 2022** Before: CANBY, TASHIMA, and NGUYEN, Circuit Judges. Oscar Douglas Hernandez-Rosas, a native and citizen of El Salvador, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order denying his motion to reopen for termination of proceedings. Our jurisdiction is governed by 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review for abuse of discretion the BIA’s denial of a * This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by Ninth Circuit Rule 36-3. ** The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2). motion to reopen, Najmabadi v. Holder, 597 F.3d 983, 986 (9th Cir. 2010), and the denial of a motion to terminate, Dominguez v. Barr, 975 F.3d 725, 734 (9th Cir. 2020). We deny in part and dismiss in part the petition for review. Hernandez-Rosas’s contention that the agency lacked jurisdiction under Pereira v. Sessions, 138 S. Ct. 2105 (2018), fails. See 8 U.S.C. § 1252(b) (1988) (deferring to regulations to establish requirements to provide notice of the deportation proceedings); 8 C.F.R. § 242.1(b) (1993) (not requiring the time or place at which proceedings will be held to be included in the order to show cause); see also Karingithi v. Whitaker, 913 F.3d 1158, 1160-62 (9th Cir. 2019) (rejecting contention that lack of hearing information in notice to appear deprived immigration court of jurisdiction). We lack jurisdiction to review the BIA’s denial of sua sponte reopening because Hernandez-Rosas does not otherwise raise a legal or constitutional error that would invoke our jurisdiction. See Bonilla v. Lynch, 840 F.3d 575, 588 (9th Cir. 2016) (the court retains jurisdiction to review BIA decisions denying sua sponte reopening for the limited purpose of reviewing the reasoning behind the decision for legal or constitutional error). The temporary stay of removal remains in place until issuance of the mandate. PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED in part; DISMISSED in part. 2 19-72408 19-72408 Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit ca9 9th Cir. Oscar Hernandez-Rosas v.
