LEE v. HOLDER

Nos. 07-71193, 07-71916.

599 F.3d 973 (2010)

Hyoun Kyung LEE, Petitioner, v. Eric H. HOLDER Jr., Attorney General, Respondent. Hyoun Kyung Lee, Petitioner, v. Eric H. Holder Jr., Attorney General, Respondent.

United States Court of Appeals, Ninth Circuit.

Filed March 25, 2010.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Alex C. Park, Law Offices of Alex C. Park, Santa Clara, CA, for the petitioner.

Shahrzad Baghai, Office of Immigration Litigation, Civil Division, U.S. Department of Justice, Washington, D.C., for the respondent.

Before ALEX KOZINSKI, Chief Judge, DAVID R. THOMPSON and M. MARGARET McKEOWN, Circuit Judges.


PER CURIAM:

Hyoun Kyung Lee petitions for review of the decision of the Board of Immigration Appeals ("BIA") affirming the Immigration Judge's ("IJ") order of removal. Lee argues that the IJ erred in finding her ineligible for U visa interim relief, a temporary form of relief that was previously made available to immigrant victims of crime. Because the IJ had no authority to grant Lee U visa interim relief, we deny the petition for review.
