U.S. COURT OF APPEALS

We lack jurisdiction to review the BIA’s discretionary denial of Han’s
237(a)(l)(H) waiver application because she does not present an exhausted
constitutional claim or question of law. See Vasquez v. Holder, 602 F.3d 1003,
1017 (9th Cir. 2010) (while the court lacks jurisdiction to review the discretionary
denial of a 237(a)(1)(H) waiver, it may review constitutional claims or questions of
law). Han failed to exhaust her contentions that the agency made an erroneous
adverse credibility determination and that the agency violated due process by
failing to provide an opportunity to explain inconsistencies in her testimony. See
Agyeman v. INS, 296 F.3d 871, 877 (9th Cir. 2002) (no jurisdiction to entertain due
process claims based on correctable procedural errors unless the petitioner raised
them below).
PETITION FOR REVIEW DISMISSED.
