MOLLY C. DWYER, CLERK
U.S. COURT OF APPEALS
FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT
SANDRA LUCRECIA LOPEZ-LOPEZ, No. 20-73772
Petitioner, Agency No. A201-293-735
v.
MEMORANDUM*
MERRICK B. GARLAND, Attorney
General,
Respondent.
On Petition for Review of an Order of the
Board of Immigration Appeals
Submitted March 14, 2023**
Before: SILVERMAN, SUNG, and SANCHEZ, Circuit Judges.
Sandra Lucrecia Lopez-Lopez, a native and citizen of Guatemala, petitions
pro se for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ order dismissing her
appeal from an immigration judge’s decision to terminate 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).
Because an order terminating removal proceedings is not a final order of
removal, we lack jurisdiction to consider Lopez-Lopez’s petition for review. See
8 U.S.C. § 1252(a)(1); Lopez v. Garland, 40 F.4th 996, 1000 (9th Cir. 2022)
(“[T]he termination of [petitioner’s] removal proceedings was not itself a final
order of removal, and our jurisdiction is limited to such orders.”); see also 8 U.S.C.
§ 1252(b)(9) (“Judicial review of all questions of law and fact . . . shall be
available only in judicial review of a final order [of removal].”).
The temporary stay of removal is lifted.
PETITION FOR REVIEW DISMISSED.
