FILED NOT FOR PUBLICATION NOV 3 2016 UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS MOLLY C. DWYER, CLERK FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT LUIS CARLOS CEBALLOS-RAMIREZ, Petitioner, v. No. U.S. COURT OF APPEALS 15-70460 Agency No. A200-244-346 MEMORANDUM* LORETTA E. LYNCH, Attorney General, Respondent. On Petition for Review of an Order of the Board of Immigration Appeals Submitted October 25, 2016** Before: LEAVY, SILVERMAN, and GRABER, Circuit Judges. Luis Carlos Ceballos-Ramirez, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order denying his motion to reconsider its denial of a motion to reopen removal proceedings to seek administrative closure. 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 BIA’s denial of Ceballos-Ramirez’s motion to reconsider its underlying discretionary decision regarding administrative closure. See Diaz-Covarrubias v. Mukasey, 551 F.3d 1114, 1120 (9th Cir. 2009) (this court lacks jurisdiction to review the denial of administrative closure for lack of a sufficiently meaningful standard to evaluate the decision); Vilchiz-Soto v. Holder, 688 F.3d 642, 644 (9th Cir. 2012) (limiting the court’s jurisdiction to review the BIA’s denial of a motion to reconsider its underling discretionary determination). PETITION FOR REVIEW DISMISSED. 2 15-70460
