IN THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS

FOR THE FIFTH CIRCUIT

No. 15-60601

Summary Calendar

JUAN ANTONIO MELGAR–MELGAR,

Petitioner,

v.

LORETTA LYNCH, U. S. ATTORNEY GENERAL,

Respondent.

Petition for Review of an Order of the

Board of Immigration Appeals

BIA No. A098 998 193

Before KING, CLEMENT, and OWEN, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

Juan Antonio Melgar-Melgar petitions for review of the decision by the 

Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) to dismiss his appeal of the Immigration 

Judge’s (IJ) order denying his motion to reopen. Melgar-Melgar’s conclusional 

assertion that he did not receive notice of the removal hearing fails to show 

any abuse of discretion in the denial of his motion to reopen. See Zhao v. 

Gonzales, 404 F.3d 295, 303-04 (5th Cir. 2005). We lack jurisdiction to review 

 

* Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not 

be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH 

CIR. R. 47.5.4.

2

Melgar-Melgar’s due process claims because he failed to exhaust them before 

the BIA. See Claudio v. Holder, 601 F.3d 316, 318-19 (5th Cir. 2010); Omari 

v. Holder, 562 F.3d 314, 319-21 (5th Cir. 2009).

Melgar-Melgar’s petition for review is DENIED in part and DISMISSED 

in part for lack of jurisdiction.
