cancellation of removal. Our jurisdiction is governed by 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We
review de novo questions of law. Altamirano v. Gonzales, 427 F.3d 586, 591 (9th
Cir. 2005). We dismiss in part and deny in part the petition for review.
We lack jurisdiction to consider petitioners’ contentions that they did not
knowingly and voluntarily consent to their August 23, 1998, expedited removal
orders, because it would require us to “nullify the continuing effects of [those]
order[s],” which 8 U.S.C. § 1252(a)(2)(A) bars. Avendano-Ramirez v. Ashcroft,
365 F.3d 813, 818-19 (9th Cir. 2004).
Because the agency correctly determined that the expedited removal orders
precluded petitioners from establishing the continuous physical presence required
for cancellation of removal, see Juarez-Ramos v. Gonzales, 485 F.3d 509, 512 (9th
Cir. 2007), we need not reach their remaining contentions.
PETITION FOR REVIEW DISMISSED in part; DENIED in part.
