Text: We conclude that the district court lacked jurisdiction to consider Bian’s claim, as Congress has expressly precluded judicial review of the USCIS’s pace of adjudication when the agency acts within its discretion and pursuant to the 17 5 U.S.C. § 702. 18 Norton v. S. Utah Wilderness Alliance, 542 U.S. 55, 64-65 (2004) (emphasis in original). 19 5 U.S.C. § 701(a)(1)-(2). 10 No. 09-10568 c/w No. 09-10742 regulations that the agency deems necessary for carrying out its statutory grant of authority. For the reasons stated above, the dismissal of Bian’s claim is AFFIRMED. 11
