IH/Research
order denying their motion to reopen and reconsider. 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 the BIA’s March 8, 2007, order dismissing

petitioners’ appeal from an immigration judge’s order denying their application for

cancellation of removal. See Singh v. INS, 315 F.3d 1186, 1188 (9th Cir. 2003).

        The petition for review is timely only as to the BIA’s May 11, 2007, order

denying petitioners’ motion to reopen and reconsider. In their brief, petitioners fail

to address this order and waive any challenge to it. See Martinez-Serrano v. INS,

94 F.3d 1256, 1259-60 (9th Cir. 1996) (issues not specifically raised and argued in

a party’s opening brief are waived).

        PETITION FOR REVIEW DISMISSED in part; DENIED in part.
