Iashvili v. Gonzales

227 F. App'x 384

Opinion

PER CURIAM:

*

Irina Iashvili, David Tkebuchava, and la Tkebuchava, are natives and citizens of Georgia. They have petitioned this court for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) order affirming the denial of asylum and withholding of removal. The petitioners fail to show that the record compels reversal of the finding of the IJ that they are not entitled to asylum or withholding of removal. See Chun v. INS, 40 F.3d 76, 78 (5th Cir.1994); Mikhael v. INS, 115 F.3d 299, 306 (5th Cir.1997). Because the petitioners did not apply for relief under the Convention Against Torture, this court lacks jurisdiction over that claim. See 8 U.S.C. § 1252(d)(1); Wang v. Ashcroft, 260 F.3d 448, 452-453 (5th Cir. 2001). Accordingly, review of the BIA’s denial of asylum and withholding of removal is DENIED.

Pursuant to 5th Cir. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.
