Opinion:
MEMORANDUM
Alejandro Cruz-Gamboa and Jehorgina Arreola, natives and citizens of Mexico, petition for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals' ("BIA") dismissal of their appeal from an Immigration Judge's ("IJ") decision which, after a limited remand, granted voluntary departure but did not reconsider the petitioners' previously-denied applications for cancellation of removal. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1252, and we deny the petition.
Because the BIA affirmed the denial of the petitioners' applications for cancellation of removal and expressly limited the scope of its remand to the issue of voluntary departure, the IJ properly refused to reconsider the denial of the applications for cancellation of removal. See Pinto v. Holder, 648 F.3d 976, 986 (9th Cir.2011) (explaining that our precedent does not "allow reconsideration of the petitioner's eligibility for discretionary relief in cases like [the petitioner's] where the BIA definitively adjudicates this issue and where the only lingering question on remand is how petitioner will leave: by removal or through voluntary departure."); see also Junming Li v. Holder, 656 F.3d 898, 904 n. 1 (9th Cir.2011); In re M-D-, 24 I. & N. Dec. 138, 141 (BIA 2007).
PETITION DENIED.
