Opinion

MEMORANDUM **

Huazhong Xu petitions for review of the decision of the .Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) vacating the Immigration Judge’s (IJ) grant of protection under the Convention Against Torture and remanding for further proceedings.

Under 8 U.S.C. § 1252(a), our review is limited to final orders of removal. See Lopez-Ruiz v. Ashcroft, 298 F.3d 886, 887 (9th Cir.2002). When, as here, “the BIA remands to the IJ for any reason, no final order of removal exists until all administrative proceedings have concluded.” Abdisalan v. Holder, 774 F.3d 517, 526 (9th Cir.2014) (en banc). Accordingly, we lack jurisdiction over Xu’s petition for review.

PETITION DISMISSED.
