Although Sanchez Ramirez attempts to phrase his arguments in legal and constitutional terms, he is, in Pursuant to 5TH CIR.

The discretionary denial of relief under § 212(c) does not present a question of law or a constitutional claim over which this court has jurisdiction. DelgadoReynua v. Gonzales, 450 F.3d 596, 599-600 (5th Cir. 2006); Marquez-Marquez v. Gonzales, 455 F.3d 548, 560-61 (5th Cir. 2006). Therefore, we lack jurisdiction to review Sanchez Ramirez s challenge to the BIA s decision dismissing his appeal of the IJ s denial of his application for § 212(c) relief. The petition for review is DISMISSED. 2
