               Respondent.

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

                             Submitted September 13, 2010 **

Before:        SILVERMAN, CALLAHAN, and N.R. SMITH, Circuit Judges.

removal. Our jurisdiction is governed by 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We dismiss in part and

deny in part the petition for review.

      We lack jurisdiction to review Arias-Gutierrez’s ineffective assistance of

counsel claim because he failed to raise that issue before the BIA and thereby

failed to exhaust his administrative remedies. See Barron v. Ashcroft, 358 F.3d

674, 678 (9th Cir. 2004).

      Arias-Gutierrez’s remaining contentions are unavailing.

      PETITION FOR REVIEW DISMISSED in part; DENIED in part.
