    Petitioner,
    v.                                             MEMORANDUM *
    ERIC H. HOLDER, Jr., Attorney General,
    Respondent.
    On Petition for Review of an Order of the
    Board of Immigration Appeals
    Submitted August 1, 2013 **
    Before:        GRABER, WARDLAW, and PAEZ, Circuit Judges.
    Rosario Simon, a native and citizen of the Philippines, petitions for review
    of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order dismissing her appeal from an
    immigration judge’s decision denying her application for cancellation of removal.
    We dismiss the petition for review.
    *
    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).
    The BIA denied cancellation on two alternative grounds. The first is a
    discretionary conclusion that Petitioner failed to demonstrate good moral character
    on account of a fraudulent marriage, entered into so as to procure immigration
    benefits for Petitioner’s daughter. We lack jurisdiction to review that
    determination. See Lopez-Castellanos v. Gonzales, 
    437 F.3d 848
    , 854 (9th Cir.
    2006). We therefore need not reach the second ground, in which the BIA found
    her statutorily barred from establishing good moral character.
    PETITION FOR REVIEW DISMISSED.
