and adjustment of status. Our jurisdiction is governed by 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We
review de novo questions of law and constitutional questions. Simeonov v.
Ashcroft, 371 F.3d 532, 535 (9th Cir. 2004). We deny in part and dismiss in part
the petition for review.
Guereca-Leyva’s claim regarding continuous physical presence is foreclosed
by Juarez-Ramos v. Gonzales, 485 F.3d 509, 512 (9th Cir. 2007).
We lack jurisdiction to consider Guereca-Leyva’s contention that he did not
make a false claim to U.S. citizenship, and that the basis of his May 30, 2000,
expedited removal order was therefore incorrect, because it would require us to
“nullify the continuing effects of that order” which 8 U.S.C. § 1252(a)(2)(A) bars.
See Avendano-Ramirez v. Ashcroft, 365 F.3d 813, 818-19 (9th Cir. 2004).
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED in part; DISMISSED in part.
