Cecilia Sarai Guzman Gonzalez, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions

In her opening brief, Guzman Gonzalez fails to address, and thereby has
waived any challenge to, the BIA’s dispositive determination that she failed to
establish the due diligence necessary to waive the 90-day filing deadline for
motions to reopen. See 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(c)(2); Martinez-Serrano v. INS, 94 F.3d
1256, 1259-60 (9th Cir. 1996) (issues not specifically raised in an opening brief are
deemed waived).
In light of our disposition, we do not reach Guzman Gonzalez’s remaining
contentions.
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
