Opinion

ORDER

*

The petition is dismissed for lack of jurisdiction.

The petitioner waived his right to appeal the decision of the Immigration Judge and thus failed to exhaust his administrative remedies, depriving this court of jurisdiction to review his order of removal.¹ In addition, the petitioner failed to raise the issue of the validity of his waiver before the Board of Immigration Appeals, depriving this court of jurisdiction to review the validity of his waiver.²

DISMISSED.
