Carlos OCAMPO-CEREZO, Petitioner, v. Eric H. HOLDER, Jr., Attorney General, Respondent, 507 F. App'x 684

MEMORANDUM Carlos Ocampo-Cerezo, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions for review of a decision by the Board of Immigration Appeals (“BIA”). The BIA held that the Immigration Judge (“IJ”) properly denied Ocampo’s application for cancellation of removal under 8 U.S.C. § 1229b(b)(

l) because Ocampo had not met his burden of proving that his removal would result in exceptional and extremely unusual hardship to his father, who is a legal permanent resident. To the extent Ocampo' contends that the agency employed an improper legal standard when construing the meaning of “exceptional and extremely unusual hardship,” we have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252(a)(2)(D). See Figueroa v. Mukasey, 543 F.3d 487, 493-96 (9th Cir.2008). We deny the petition for review.

Ocampo contends that the IJ applied the incorrect legal standard by considering his father’s current situation instead of considering the hardship his father would experience in the future. As part of this argument, Ocampo contends that it was error for the IJ to take • into consideration the financial support his siblings would provide to their father upon Ocampo’s removal because the siblings are not lawfully in the United States.

We hold that the IJ and BIA properly employed a future-oriented analysis by considering whether Ocampo’s removal would result in an exceptional and extremely unusual hardship to his father and that it was permissible to take into consideration the support that his siblings would provide if Ocampo were removed. See 8 U.S.C. § 1229b(b)(l)(D); Figueroa, 543 F.3d at 497-98; In re Monreal-Aguinaga, 23 I. & N. Dec. 56, 63 (B.I.A.2001) (en banc). PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED. This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9 th Cir. R. 36-3.
