                      ______________________________

   Before Higginbotham, Stewart, and Southwick, Circuit
   Judges.
   Per Curiam: *
          Norma Edith Jaquez Garay, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions
   for review of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals dismissing her
   appeal from an order of an Immigration Judge denying her application for,
   inter alia, cancellation of removal and ordering her removed. She argues that
   her due process rights were infringed in connection with her cancellation

                                    No. 23-60205

   proceedings. Cancellation of removal is a discretionary form of relief. See
   Santos-Zacaria v. Garland, 143 S. Ct. 1103, 1117–18 (2023); 8 U.S.C.
   § 1229b(b)(1), (b)(2). Aliens have no due process rights with respect to
   discretionary relief. Ramos-Portillo v. Barr, 919 F.3d 955, 963 (5th Cir. 2019).
   Her due process argument is thus unavailing, and her petition for review is
   DENIED.
