   MEMORANDUM

Juan Carlos Rivera-Rivera, a native and citizen of El Salvador, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ order dismissing his appeal from an immigration judge’s decision denying his application for special rule cancellation of removal under the Nicaraguan Adjustment and Central American Relief Act of 1997 (“NACARA”). We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. Reviewing de novo questions of law, Cerezo v. Mukasey, 512 F.3d 1163, 1166 (9th Cir.2008), we deny the petition for review.

Rivera-Rivera’s contention is foreclosed by Barrios v. Holder, 581 F.3d 849, 858 (9th Cir.2009) (holding that a minor who seeks relief as a derivative under NA-CARA must personally satisfy the seven-year continuous physical presence requirement).

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
