Opinion:
MEMORANDUM
Victor Miranda-Hernandez, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals' order affirming an immigration judge's denial of his application for cancellation of removal. We dismiss the petition for review.
We lack jurisdiction to review the agency's discretionary determination that Miranda-Hernandez failed to show exceptional and extremely unusual hardship to a qualifying relative. See Romero-Torres v. Ashcroft, 327 F.3d 887, 890 (9th Cir.2003). Miranda-Hernandez's contention that the hardship standard set forth in 8 U.S.C. § 1229b(b)(l)(D) is unconstitutionally vague does not constitute a colorable constitutional claim or question of law that would invoke our jurisdiction. See 8 U.S.C. § 1252(a)(2)(D); Martinez-Rosas v. Gonzales, 424 F.3d 926, 930 (9th Cir.2005) ("traditional abuse of discretion challenges recast as alleged due process violations do not constitute colorable constitutional claims that would invoke our jurisdiction").
We do not consider Miranda-Hernandez's contentions regarding physical presence because his failure to establish hardship is dispositive. See 8 U.S.C. § 1229b(b)(l)(D); Simeonov v. Ashcroft, 371 F.3d 532, 538 (9th Cir.2004) ("As a general rule courts . are not required to make findings on issues the decision of which is unnecessary to the results they reach."

PETITION FOR REVIEW DISMISSED.
