FILED NOT FOR PUBLICATION UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS DEC 21 2012 MOLLY C. DWYER, CLERK U .S. C O U R T OF APPE ALS FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT MIRZA LORENA CARPIO, Petitioner, No. 10-73842 Agency No. A027-551-036 v. MEMORANDUM * ERIC H. HOLDER, Jr., Attorney General, Respondent. On Petition for Review of an Order of the Board of Immigration Appeals Submitted December 19, 2012 ** Before: GOODWIN, WALLACE, and FISHER, Circuit Judges. Mirza Lorena Carpio, a native and citizen of Guatemala, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals order dismissing her appeal from an immigration judge s decision denying her applications for asylum, withholding of removal, relief under the Convention Against Torture, and special rule cancellation * This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3. ** The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2). of removal under the Nicaraguan Adjustment and Central American Relief Act. Our jurisdiction is governed by 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We dismiss the petition for review. Carpio s only argument is that her case should be remanded to the agency for consideration of her claim, based on Perdomo v. Holder, 611 F.3d 662 (9th Cir. 2010), that she has a well-founded fear of persecution on account of her membership in the particular social group of Guatemalan women. We lack jurisdiction to consider this claim because she did not raise it to the agency. See Barron v. Ashcroft, 358 F.3d 674, 678 (9th Cir. 2004). PETITION FOR REVIEW DISMISSED. 2 10-73842
