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.
