NOT FOR PUBLICATION


MEMORANDUM

This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.


On Petition for Review of an Order of the

Board of Immigration Appeals


Before: SCHROEDER, GRABER, and PAEZ, Circuit Judges.

Glenda Esmeralda Hernandez-Buruca, a native and citizen of El Salvador, petitions pro se for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals' ("BIA") order denying her motion to reconsider. Our jurisdiction is governed by 8 U.S.C. § 1252 and we dismiss Hernandez-Buruca's petition for review.

Hernandez-Buruca's petition for review is untimely because she filed it on April 25, 2011, more than 30 days after the BIA's decision on March 23, 2011. See 8 U.S.C. § 1252(b)(1); Stone v. INS, 514 U.S. 386, 405 (1995) (the 30-day filing period for a petition for review is mandatory and jurisdictional); Magtanong v. Gonzales, 494 F.3d 1190, 1191 (9th Cir. 2007) (order) (per curiam) (internal citation omitted) ("A mandatory and jurisdictional rule cannot be forfeited or waived, and courts lack the authority to create equitable exceptions to such a rule."). We reject Hernandez-Buruca's contentions that the petition was timely pursuant to the "constructive receipt" rule or Federal Rule of Appellate Procedure 26(a)(3)(A). Thus, we dismiss the petition for review for lack of jurisdiction.

PETITION FOR REVIEW DISMISSED.
