PER CURIAM.
Guatemalan citizen Israel Ortega-Romero petitions for review of an order of the
Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) vacating an immigration judge’s grant of special
rule cancellation of removal and ordering him removed. We conclude substantial
evidence supports the BIA’s finding that Ortega-Romero did not meet the requirement
of good moral character, and thus we agree with the BIA’s determination that he did
not establish eligibility for special rule cancellation of removal. See
Ikenokwalu-White v. INS, 316 F.3d 798, 802-05 (8th Cir. 2003) (standard of review).
Accordingly, we deny the petition.
