Opinion:
MEMORANDUM
Yadira Guadalupe Villasenor and her daughter Maria del Carmen Montes Villasenor, natives and citizens of Mexico, petition pro se for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals' ("BIA") orders dismissing their appeals from an immigration judge's decision denying their applications for cancellation of removal. To the extent we have jurisdiction, it is conferred by 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review de novo claims of due process violations in immigration proceedings, Sanchez-Cruz v. INS, 255 F.3d 775, 779 (9th Cir.2001), and we dismiss in part and deny in part the petition for review.
We lack jurisdiction to review the agency's discretionary determination that Villasenor failed to show exceptional and extremely unusual hardship. See Martinez-Rosas v. Gonzales, 424 F.3d 926, 929 (9th Cir.2005).
Villasenor's contention that the agency violated due process by limiting her testimony regarding hardship is not colorable. See id. at 930 ("[tjraditional abuse of discretion challenges recast as alleged due process violations do not constitute color-able constitutional claims that would invoke our jurisdiction.").
We do not consider Villasenor's contention regarding physical presence, because her failure to establish hardship is dispositive. See Romero-Torres v. Ashcroft, 327 F.3d 887, 889 (9th Cir.2003) (noting that an applicant must establish continuous physical presence, good moral character and hardship to qualify for relief).
With respect to Villasenor's daughter, she does not challenge the agency's conclusion that she lacks a qualifying relative. See 8 U.S.C. § 1229b(b)(l)(d).
PETITION FOR REVIEW DISMISSED in part; DENIED in part.
