United States Court of Appeals For the Eighth Circuit ___________________________ No. 18-3583 ___________________________ Eugenio Chacon-Ruiz lllllllllllllllllllllPetitioner v. William P. Barr, Attorney General of the United States lllllllllllllllllllllRespondent ____________ Petition for Review of an Order of the Board of Immigration Appeals ____________ Submitted: January 10, 2020 Filed: January 15, 2020 [Unpublished] ____________ Before GRUENDER, BEAM, and KELLY, Circuit Judges. ____________ PER CURIAM. Eugenio Chacon-Ruiz, a citizen of Mexico, petitions for review of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA), which rejected his assertion that the agency lacked jurisdiction to order him removed, and denied his motion to remand based on new evidence that he contended established his eligibility for cancellation of removal.1 After careful review, this court concludes that Chacon-Ruiz’s challenge to the agency’s jurisdiction over his removal proceedings is foreclosed by this court’s precedent, see Ali v. Barr, 924 F.3d 983, 986 (8th Cir. 2019); and his challenge to the denial of his motion to remand constitutes a disagreement with the BIA’s weighing of discretionary hardship factors, and thus falls outside the scope of this court’s review, see 8 U.S.C. §§ 1229b(b)(1), 1252(a)(2)(B); Caballero-Martinez v. Barr, 920 F.3d 543, 548 n.1 (8th Cir. 2019). Accordingly, the petition for review is denied in part and dismissed in part. ______________________________ 1 The remainder of the BIA’s order is not before this panel. See Chay- Velasquez v. Ashcroft, 367 F.3d 751, 756 (8th Cir. 2004) (claim not raised in opening brief is waived). -2- 18-3583 Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit ca8 8th Cir. Eugenio Chacon-Ruiz v. William P.
