PER CURIAM.
El Salvadoran citizen William Jacinto Pineda-Villalobos (Pineda) petitions for
review of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) upholding an
immigration judge’s (IJ’s) denial of withholding of removal. We agree with the IJ
and the BIA that Pineda failed to establish that he qualified for withholding of
removal. See De Castro-Gutierrez v. Holder, 713 F.3d 375, 379 (8th Cir. 2013)
-- 1 of 2 --
(reviewing de novo questions of law; where BIA essentially adopts IJ’s decision, but
also adds its own reasoning, this court reviews both decisions together under
substantial-evidence standard); see also 8 U.S.C. § 1231(b)(3)(A); Alavez-Hernandez
v. Holder, 714 F.3d 1063, 1066 (8th Cir. 2013) (qualifications for withholding of
removal). The petition for review is denied.
