jurisdiction is governed by 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review for abuse of discretion
the BIA’s decision to summarily dismiss an appeal. Singh v. Gonzales, 416 F.3d
1006, 1009 (9th Cir. 2005). We deny in part and dismiss in part the petition for
review.
The BIA did not abuse its discretion in summarily dismissing Perez
Sanchez’s appeal. See 8 C.F.R. § 1003.1(d)(2)(i)(A), (E); Reyes-Mendoza v. INS,
774 F.2d 1364 (9th Cir. 1985) (summary dismissal appropriate where Notice of
Appeal lacked sufficient specificity and no separate written brief was filed).
We lack jurisdiction to consider Perez Sanchez’s contentions challenging the
IJ’s denial of relief because she did not raise them to the BIA. See Barron v.
Ashcroft, 358 F.3d 674, 677-78 (9th Cir. 2004) (petitioner must exhaust issues in
administrative proceedings below).
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED in part; DISMISSED in part.
