   MEMORANDUM

Bay Van Vo petitions for review of a Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) order affirming an immigration judge’s decision denying Vo relief under former § 212(c) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) and the Convention Against Torture (CAT). We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252(a), and we dismiss in part and deny in part the petition for review.

1. We lack jurisdiction to review the denial of § 212(c) relief because it is a discretionary determination. 8 U.S.C. § 1252(a)(2)(B). Although that jurisdictional limitation does not prohibit our “review of constitutional claims or questions of law raised upon a petition for review,” 8 U.S.C. § 1252(a)(2)(D), Vo has not raised any such claims or questions. Vo’s argument that the Immigration Judge failed to properly weigh the equities is an attempt to “create the jurisdiction that Congress chose to remove simply by cloaking an abuse of discretion argument in constitutional garb.” Torres-Aguilar v. INS, 246 F.3d 1267, 1271 (9th Cir.2001); see also Bazua-Cota v. Gonzales, 466 F.3d 747, 749 (9th Cir.2006) (“In an attempt to invoke our jurisdiction over this petition for review, Petitioner contends that the BIA and IJ violated his right to due process by failing to properly weigh the equities and hardship before denying his application for adjustment of status. This argument is an abuse of discretion challenge re-characterized as an alleged due process violation.”).

2. Substantial evidence supports the BIA’s determination that the record does not compel the conclusion that Vo is more likely than not to suffer torture if removed to Vietnam. Vo’s three subsequent trips to Vietnam suggest that relocation within the country is possible. See Singh v. Gonzales, 439 F.3d 1100, 1113 (9th Cir.2006); see also Hasan v. Ashcroft, 380 F.3d 1114, 1123 (9th Cir.2004) ([I]n the CAT context ... the petitioners have the burden of presenting evidence to show that internal relocation is not a possibility) (citing 8 C.F.R. § 208.16(c)(3)(ii)). We accordingly deny Vo’s petition for review with regard to his CAT claim.

DISMISSED in part; DENIED in part.
