Petitioner,
v. MEMORANDUM *
ERIC H. HOLDER, Jr., Attorney General,
Respondent.
On Petition for Review of an Order of the
Board of Immigration Appeals
Submitted July 17, 2012 **
Before: SCHROEDER, THOMAS, and SILVERMAN, Circuit Judges.
Juan A. Machic Salayon, a native and citizen of Guatemala, petitions for
review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order dismissing his appeal
from an immigration judge’s (“IJ”) decision denying his application for asylum
*
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).
and withholding of removal. Our jurisdiction is governed by 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We
deny in part and dismiss in part the petition for review.
The BIA found that Salayon failed to reasonably challenge the bases for the
IJ’s denial of his applications for relief from removal and dismissed his appeal.
Salayon does not contend the BIA erred in dismissing his appeal on this basis. See
Martinez-Serrano v. INS, 94 F.3d 1256, 1259-60 (9th Cir. 1996) (issues not
supported by argument are deemed waived). Accordingly, we deny the petition as
to Salayon’s asylum and withholding of removal claims.
We lack jurisdiction to review Salayon’s unexhausted claim that the IJ
violated his due process rights by failing to fully develop the record. See Tall v.
Mukasey, 517 F.3d 1115, 1120 (9th Cir. 2008).
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED in part; DISMISSED in part.
