MEMORANDUM*
On Petition for Review of an Order of the
Board of Immigration Appeals
Submitted May 21, 2019**
Before: THOMAS, Chief Judge, FRIEDLAND and BENNETT, Circuit Judges.
Lilibeth Mendez Aleluya, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions for
review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order denying her motion to
reopen. We dismiss the petition for review.
We lack jurisdiction to review the BIA’s discretionary decision not to reopen
proceedings sua sponte, and Mendez Aleluya does not raise a claim of error
* 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).

underlying the sua sponte determination that would invoke our jurisdiction. See
Bonilla v. Lynch, 840 F.3d 575, 588 (9th Cir. 2016) (the court’s jurisdiction to
review BIA decisions denying sua sponte reopening is limited to reviewing the
reasoning behind the decisions for legal or constitutional error).
PETITION FOR REVIEW DISMISSED.
