Chavez-Vasquez v. Mukasey

Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit

Decided December 8, 2008No. 08-1652PublishedCited by 12 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

RIPPLE, Circuit Judge.

Aura Chavez-Vasquez fled her native Guatemala and illegally entered the United States. When the Government initiated removal proceedings, she applied for cancellation of removal, but the immigration judge (“IJ”) concluded that she had not proven that her children would suffer extreme hardship if she were removed. The Board of Immigration Appeals (“BIA”) upheld the IJ’s decision, and Ms. Chavez-Vasquez petitioned this court for review. For the reasons set forth in this opinion, we conclude that we lack subject matter jurisdiction and therefore dismiss her petition.
