Respondent.
On Petition for Review of an Order of the
Board of Immigration Appeals
Submitted June 12, 2014**
Before: McKEOWN, WARDLAW, and M. SMITH, Circuit Judges.

applications for cancellation of removal. Our jurisdiction is governed by 8 U.S.C.
§ 1252. We review de novo constitutional claims and questions of law.
Martinez-Rosas v. Gonzales,
424 F.3d 926, 930 (9th Cir. 2005). We dismiss in
part and deny in part the petition for review.
We lack jurisdiction to review the agency’s discretionary determination that
petitioners failed to show exceptional and extremely unusual hardship to their
qualifying relatives. See
id.
Petitioners’ contention that the agency violated due process by disregarding
the evaluations regarding their children’s language abilities is not supported by the
record and does not amount to a colorable constitutional claim that would invoke
our jurisdiction. See
id. (traditional abuse of discretion challenges recast as alleged
due process violations do not constitute colorable constitutional claims).
Petitioners’ contention that the BIA violated due process by reviewing de
novo the IJ’s 2004 decision is unavailing. See 8 C.F.R. § 1003.1(d)(3)(ii) (granting
BIA authority to review de novo questions of law, discretion, and judgment).
PETITION FOR REVIEW DISMISSED in part; DENIED in part.
