DWYER, CLERK FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT ELMER STEVE FUENTES HERNANDEZ, No. Petitioner, U.S. COURT OF APPEALS 14-71200 Agency No. A206-421-638 v. MEMORANDUM* JEFFERSON B. SESSIONS III, Attorney General, Respondent. On Petition for Review of an Immigration Judge’s Decision Submitted September 26, 2017** Before: SILVERMAN, TALLMAN, and N. R. SMITH, Circuit Judges. Elmer Steve Fuentes Hernandez, a native and citizen of Honduras, petitions for review of an immigration judge’s (“IJ”) order affirming the decision of an asylum officer during expedited removal proceedings. We dismiss the petition for review. * This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by Ninth Circuit Rule 36-3. ** The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2). We lack jurisdiction to review the IJ’s order because it was issued pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1225(b)(1) and none of the exceptions to the restriction on judicial review of expedited removal orders apply. See 8 U.S.C. § 1252(a)(2)(A)(iii) (“no court shall have jurisdiction to review” determinations made under 8 U.S.C. § 1225(b)(1)(B)); Pena v. Lynch, 815 F.3d 452, 455-56 (9th Cir. 2016) (concluding this court generally lacks jurisdiction to review removal orders issued pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1225(b)(1) and describing the limited exceptions). PETITION FOR REVIEW DISMISSED. 2 14-71200
