U.S. COURT OF APPEALS
* This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent
except as provided by Ninth Circuit Rule 36-3.
** The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision
without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2).

We lack jurisdiction to consider Salas-Hernandez’ unexhausted contentions
that his former counsel provided ineffective assistance, and that the IJ forced his
former counsel to withdraw Salas-Hernandez’ application for cancellation of
removal. See Tijani v. Holder, 628 F.3d 1071, 1080 (9th Cir. 2010) (the court
lacks jurisdiction to consider legal claims not presented in an alien’s administrative
proceedings before the agency).
PETITION FOR REVIEW DISMISSED.
