  v.

ERIC H. HOLDER, Jr., Attorney General,

               Respondent.

                      On Petition for Review of an Order of the
                          Board of Immigration Appeals

                             Submitted June 12, 2014**

Before:        McKEOWN, WARDLAW, and M. SMITH, Circuit Judges.

       Jose Luis Sanchez-Cortes, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions for

review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ order dismissing his appeal from an

immigration judge’s decision denying his application for cancellation of removal.

except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
          **
             The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision
without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2).
We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review de novo questions of law.

Garcia v. Holder, 659 F.3d 1261, 1265-66 (9th Cir. 2011). We deny the petition

for review.

      The U.S. Supreme Court’s decision in Holder v. Martinez Gutierrez,

132 S. Ct. 2011 (2012), forecloses Sanchez-Cortes’s sole contention regarding

imputation of his period of continuous residence.

      PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.

                                         2                                 10-73486
