On Petition for Review of an Order of the Board of Immigration Appeals. Agency No. A099-581-168.
Before: O'SCANNLAIN, TALLMAN and BEA, Circuit Judges.
This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
Petitioner Jose Luis Cruz Alvarez, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions for review of a Board of Immigration Appeals order dismissing his appeal from an immigration judge's ("IJ") denial of a motion for continuance regarding his application for cancellation of removal. Our jurisdiction is governed by 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We deny the petition for review.
The IJ did not abuse his discretion in denying Alvarez's motion for a continuance because Alvarez did not demonstrate good cause. 8 C.F.R. § 1003.29; see Sandoval-Luna v. Mukasey, 526 F.3d 1243, 1247 (9th Cir. 2008) (reviewing for abuse of discretion).
