Before JOLLY, DENNIS, and CLEMENT, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Irina Iashvili, David Tkebuchava, and Ia Tkebuchava, are
natives and citizens of Georgia. They have petitioned this court
for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) order
affirming the denial of asylum and withholding of removal. The
petitioners fail to show that the record compels reversal of the
finding of the IJ that they are not entitled to asylum or
withholding of removal. See Chun v. INS, 40 F.3d 76, 78 (5th Cir.
1994); Mikhael v. INS, 115 F.3d 299, 306 (5th Cir. 1997). Because

the petitioners did not apply for relief under the Convention
Against Torture, this court lacks jurisdiction over that claim.
See 8 U.S.C. § 1252(d)(1); Wang v. Ashcroft, 260 F.3d 448, 452-453
(5th Cir. 2001). Accordingly, review of the BIA’s denial of asylum
and withholding of removal is DENIED.
