Our jurisdiction is governed by 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We dismiss the petition for
review.
We lack jurisdiction to review the BIA’s discretionary determination that
Hernandez Ortiz lacked good moral character pursuant to the catch-all provision at
8 U.S.C. § 1101(f). Lopez-Castellanos v. Gonzales, 437 F.3d 848, 854 (9th Cir.
2006). Because our resolution of this issue is dispositive, we need not reach his
constitutional claims regarding the BIA’s hardship determination.
PETITION FOR REVIEW DISMISSED.
