1Opinion of the Court
MEMORANDUM *
Petitioner, Abdelrehim Mohamed Kewan, appeals the order of the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) denying his adjustment of status. We dismiss in part and deny in part Kewan’s appeal.
We dismiss for lack of jurisdiction Kewan’s claim that the BIA erred in denying his adjustment of status. Adjustment of status determinations are discretionary and, therefore, unreviewable pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1252(a)(2)(B)®. See Romero-Torres v. Ashcroft, 327 F.3d 887, 888 (9th Cir.2003).
We deny Kewan’s remaining claim that he was denied due process of law in the conduct of his removal proceeding.…
