Text: 8 Generally speaking, this court has jurisdiction to review final orders of removal under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. However, this court does not have jurisdiction to review the discretionary decision of the Attorney General to grant (or deny) cancellation of removal or voluntary departure. See 8 U.S.C. § 1252(a)(2)(B)(I). Despite this prohibition, we do have jurisdiction to review nondiscretionary determinations relating to an alien's eligibility for relief. See, e.g., Morales-Morales v. Ashcroft, 384 F.3d 418, 421-23 (7th Cir.2004) (holding that the meaning of the term continuous physical presence for purposes of cancellation of removal is a nondiscretionary question of statutory interpretation). We also may review constitutional questions and questions of law raised in a petition for review of a final removal order. See 8 U.S.C. § 1252(a)(2)(D). Because Mr. Abu Hashish's claims with respect to both cancellation of removal and voluntary departure raise questions of law, we have jurisdiction to review those claims.
