review de novo questions of law. Mohammed v. Gonzales, 400 F.3d 785, 791-92 1
(9th Cir. 2005). We dismiss in part and deny in part the petition for review. 2
Our jurisdiction to review the agency’s discretionary decision to deny Reyes 3
Mayen’s application for adjustment of status is limited to colorable constitutional 4
claims or questions of law. See 8 U.S.C. § 1252(a)(2)(B)(i). Contrary to Reyes 5
Mayen’s contentions, the agency applied the correct legal standards and considered 6
all relevant factors in determining that he did not warrant a favorable exercise of 7
discretion. 8
PETITION FOR REVIEW DISMISSED in part; DENIED in part. 9
