MEMORANDUM **
Petitioner Roberto Marquez Chavez, a native and citizen of El Salvador, seeks review of a Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order summarily dismissing his appeal from an immigration judges (“IJ”) order of removal and denial of Petitioners applications for asylum, withholding of removal, and relief under the Convention Against Torture. We deny the petition.
The BIA did not abuse its discretion, Singh v. Gonzales, 416 F.3d 1006, 1009 (9th Cir. 2005), in summarily dismissing Petitioners appeal. Counsels contention, in the Notice of Appeal, that the IJ erred by finding that Petitioners conviction was an aggravated felony drug offense contradicts counsels earlier statement that Petitioner admitted the factual allegations in the Notice to Appear and conceded the charge of removability. The Notice of Appeal fails to offer support for why Petitioner is able to retract his concession of removability, other than a “generalized and conclusory” statement about how the IJ erred. Toquero v. INS, 956 F.2d 193, 195 (9th Cir. 1992). And the standard for summarily dismissing an appeal under 8 C.F.R. § 1003.1(d)(2)(i)(A) or (E) was otherwise met. Rojas-Garcia v. Ashcroft, 339 F.3d 814, 819–20 (9th Cir. 2003); cf. Casas-Chavez v. INS, 300 F.3d 1088, 1090–91 (9th Cir. 2002).
PETITION DENIED.
