No. 17-71933 (9th Cir. Sep. 23, 2019)

Opinion

No. 17-71933

09-23-2019

JIAN JUN XIE, Petitioner, v. WILLIAM P. BARR, Attorney General, Respondent.


NOT FOR PUBLICATION

Agency No. A205-323-455 MEMORANDUM On Petition for Review of an Order of the Board of Immigration Appeals Before: FARRIS, TASHIMA, and NGUYEN, Circuit Judges.

This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by Ninth Circuit Rule 36-3.

Jian Jun Xie, a native and citizen of China, petitions pro se for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals' ("BIA") order summarily dismissing his appeal from an immigration judge's removal order. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We deny the petition for review.

In his opening brief, Xie fails to raise, and therefore has waived, any challenge to the BIA's grounds for summarily dismissing his appeal under 8 C.F.R. § 1003.1(d)(2)(i)(A) and (E). See Rizk v. Holder, 629 F.3d 1083, 1091 n.3 (9th Cir. 2011) (issues not raised in an opening brief are waived).

We do not reach Xie's opening brief contentions because our review is limited to the BIA's order. See Hernandez-Cruz v. Holder, 651 F.3d 1094, 1109 (9th Cir. 2011) (review is limited to the actual grounds relied upon by the BIA).

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
