Estarlin Rafael Valdez ALMONTE, Petitioner, v. Jefferson B. SESSIONS III, Attorney General, Respondent, 699 F. App'x 282

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM: Estarlin Rafael Valdez Almonte, a native and citizen of the Dominican Republic, petitions for review of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals dismissing his appeal of the Immigration Judge’s decision denying his request for deferral of removal under the Convention Against Torture. Pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1252(a)(2)(C) (2012), we lack jurisdiction to review the final order of removal of an alien convicted of certain enumerated crimes, including an aggravated felony.

We retain jurisdiction only over constitutional claims or questions of law. 8 U.S.C. § 1252(a)(2)(D) (2012); see Turkson v. Holder, 667 F.3d 523, 526-27 (4th Cir. 2012); Gomis v. Holder, 571 F.3d 353, 358 (4th Cir. 2009) (“[Ajbsent a color-able constitutional claim or question of law, our review of the issue is not authorized by [8 U.S.C. § ] 1252(a)(2)(D).”). Upon review, we find that Valdez Al-monte has not raised any reviewable issues. 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
