We lack jurisdiction to review Correa-Nava’s allegations of ineffective
assistance of counsel against the attorney named in his opening brief because he
failed to raise these claims before the BIA and thereby failed to exhaust his
administrative remedies. See Barron v. Ashcroft, 358 F.3d 674, 678 (9th Cir.
2004) (this court lacks jurisdiction to review contentions not raised before the
agency).
PETITION FOR REVIEW DISMISSED.
