   MEMORANDUM

This case is an appeal from the district court’s denial of habeas relief, following denial of asylum and withholding of deportation by an Immigration Judge (“IJ”) and the Board of Immigration Appeals (“BIA”).

The IJ did not deny withholding based on Malva Lescius’s having been convicted of a particularly serious crime, but rather, after conducting an evidentiary hearing on the merits of Lescius’s withholding claim, properly concluded that she did not meet the objective component required to establish fear of future persecution. See Ghaly v. INS, 58 F.3d 1425, 1428 (9th Cir.1995).

Falcon Carriche v. Ashcroft, 335 F.3d 1009 (9th Cir.2003), largely forecloses any claim that summary affirmance violated due process, as conceded below. The additional claim, arising from the BIA’s failure to remand, also fails. The “new” evidence that Lescius sought to introduce was not relevant to her claim of persecution and thus would not have altered the IJ’s findings. Consequently, actual prejudice, as required by Lata v. INS, 204 F.3d 1241, 1246 (9th Cir.2000), was not demonstrated.

AFFIRMED.
