Before COLLOTON, WOLLMAN, and KELLY, Circuit Judges.
____________
PER CURIAM.
Guatemalan citizen Byron Eduardo Perez-Garcia petitions for review of an
order of the Board of Immigration Appeals dismissing his appeal from an
Immigration Judge’s decision denying him asylum, withholding of removal, and relief
under the Convention Against Torture; and finding him ineligible for cancellation of
removal. The only issues Perez-Garcia raises in this court were not administratively
exhausted, and thus this court lacks jurisdiction to consider them. See Molino v.
Whitaker,
910 F.3d 1056, 1061 (8th Cir. 2018) (failure to raise issue before agency
amounts to failure to exhaust administrative remedies, and deprives this court of
jurisdiction to hear matter); Baltti v. Sessions,
878 F.3d 240, 244-45 (8th Cir. 2017)
(per curiam) (under 8 U.S.C. § 1252(d)(1), appellate court has jurisdiction to review
final order of removal only if petitioner has exhausted all available administrative
remedies; this court has interpreted this provision as reflecting Congress’s intent not
only to require alien to pursue all levels of administrative review, but also to raise all
issues before agency). The petition for review is dismissed.
