PER CURIAM.
Abdel Latif Toure, a native of Guinea, petitions for review of an order of the
Board of Immigration Appeals affirming an immigration judge’s order that found
Toure removable as charged. We dismiss the petition. Toure was found removable
based on two drug convictions that the immigration judge sustained, either of which
would justify his removal, see 8 U.S.C. § 1227(a)(2)(A)(iii), (B)(i), and he contests

United States, and is substituted as respondent pursuant to Federal Rule of Appellate
Procedure 43(c).
the findings as to only one conviction, see Morales Ventura v. Ashcroft,
348 F.3d
1259, 1262-63 (10th Cir. 2003) (issue is moot when court cannot grant effectual relief
on issue). In any event, the specific issues he raises are not reviewable in this court,
see 8 U.S.C. § 1252(a)(2)(C) (no court shall have jurisdiction to review final order of
removal against alien who is removable by reason of committing criminal offense
covered under, inter alia, 8 U.S.C. § 1227(a)(2)(B)), because he did not raise before
the Board of Immigration Appeals (or here) a substantial and colorable constitutional
challenge or a legal argument.
Accordingly, we dismiss the petition.
