late-filed appeal. Our jurisdiction is governed by 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We deny in
part and dismiss in part the petition for review.
Robles-Rojas has waived any challenge to the BIA’s dispositive
determinations that his appeal was untimely and he had not presented evidence
sufficient to warrant the BIA’s considering the appeal by certification. See Tijani
v. Holder, 628 F.3d 1071, 1080 (9th Cir. 2010) (“[W]e generally will not take up
arguments not raised in an alien’s opening brief before this court.”).
We lack jurisdiction to review Robles-Rojas’s remaining unexhausted
contentions. See id. (the court lacks jurisdiction to consider legal claims not
presented in an alien’s administrative proceedings before the agency).
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED in part; DISMISSED in part.
