Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Oscar Guevara Beltran, a native and citizen of Mexico,
petitions for review of an order of the Board of Immigration
Appeals (“Board”) dismissing his appeal from the immigration
judge’s decision pretermitting his application for cancellation
of removal. Because the petition for review was not filed
within thirty days of the Board’s order, we dismiss for lack of
jurisdiction.
The Board’s decision was issued on May 8, 2013.
Pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1252(b)(1) (2012), Guevara Beltran had
thirty days, or until Friday, June 7, 2013, to timely file the
petition for review. The Supreme Court has held that this time
period is “jurisdictional in nature and must be construed with
strict fidelity to [its] terms.” Stone v. INS,
514 U.S. 386,
405 (1995). It is “not subject to equitable tolling.”
Id.
Because Guevara Beltran did not file his petition until Monday,
June 10, 2013, the petition for review was untimely filed.
Accordingly, we dismiss the petition for review for
lack of jurisdiction. We dispense with oral argument because
the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the
materials before this court and argument would not aid the
decisional process.
PETITION DISMISSED
