MEMORANDUM **

Rey Emidio Maldonado-Hernandez, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ order dismissing his appeal from an *780immigration judge’s (“IJ”) decision denying his request for a continuance. Our jurisdiction is governed by 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review for abuse of discretion the denial of a continuance, Sandoval-Luna v. Mukasey, 526 F.3d 1243, 1246 (9th Cir.2008) (per curiam), and we deny in part and dismiss in part the petition for review.

The IJ did not abuse her discretion by denying a second continuance to allow Maldonado-Hernandez to seek post-conviction relief. See id. at 1247.

We lack jurisdiction to review Maldonado-Hernandez’s contentions regarding his allegedly defective criminal conviction, as we cannot collaterally reexamine his conviction. See Ortega de Robles v. INS, 58 F.3d 1355, 1358 (9th Cir.1995).

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED in part; DISMISSED in part.
