NOT FOR PUBLICATION FILED UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS MAR 6 2020 MOLLY C. DWYER, CLERK U.S. COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT MAURICIO PINON-CERECERES, No. 18-71285 Petitioner, Agency No. A201-157-151 v. MEMORANDUM* WILLIAM P. BARR, Attorney General, Respondent. On Petition for Review of an Order of the Board of Immigration Appeals Submitted March 3, 2020** Before: MURGUIA, CHRISTEN, and BADE, Circuit Judges. Mauricio Pinon-Cereceres, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ order dismissing his appeal from an immigration judge’s decision denying his application for cancellation of removal. Our jurisdiction is governed by 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review de novo questions of law. Figueroa v. Mukasey, 543 F.3d 487, 495-96 (9th Cir. 2008). We dismiss in * 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). part and deny in part the petition for review. We lack jurisdiction to review the agency’s discretionary determination that Pinon-Cereceres did not demonstrate exceptional and extremely unusual hardship in his application for cancellation of removal. See 8 U.S.C. § 1252(a)(2)(B)(i); Romero-Torres v. Ashcroft, 327 F.3d 887, 888 (9th Cir. 2003) (“[A]n ‘exceptional and extremely unusual hardship’ determination is a subjective, discretionary judgment that has been carved out of our appellate jurisdiction.”). Although we retain jurisdiction to consider questions of law, see Figueroa, 543 F.3d at 495-96, Pinon-Cereceres has not established any error underlying the agency’s hardship determination.
