Fredris Serrano-Rodriguez v. Loretta Lynch

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM: Fredris Serrano-Rodriguez (Serrano), a native and citizen of Honduras, petitions for review of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals (Board) dismissing his appeal from the immigration judge’s (I J) denial of his request for cancellation of removal. As noted by the Board, Serrano did not argue that the IJ erred in finding him ineligible for cancellation of removal, but instead contended that “the Board should reconsider its interpretation of the alien smuggling provision under [8 U.S.C. § 1182](a)(6)(E)(i) [2012] of the [Immigration and Nationality] Act.” Serrano raises new arguments, however, before this court. He now argues that the agency erred in finding him ineligible for cancellation of removal, claiming that his case is distinguishable from our decision in Ramos v. Holder, 660 F.3d 200 (4th Cir. 2011), and that the record is inconclusive as to whether he engaged in alien smuggling. We lack jurisdiction over these new claims, which were not properly exhausted *179 before the Board. See 8 U.S.C. § 1252(d)(1) (2012) (“A court may review a final order of removal only if ... the alien has exhausted all administrative.remedies available to the alien as of right.”); Kporlor v. Holder, 597 F.3d 222, 226 (4th Cir. 2010) (“It is well established that an alien must raise each argument to the [Board] before we have jurisdiction to consider it.” (internal quotations omitted)). Accordingly, we dismiss the petition for review. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before this court and argument would not aid the decisional process. PETITION DISMISSED
