   MEMORANDUM

Jorge Mendez-Cortez, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order affirming without opinion an immigration judge’s (“IJ”) denial of a motion to continue. See Nakamoto v. Ashcroft, 363 F.3d 874, 883 n. 6 (9th Cir.2004). We deny the petition for review.

The IJ did not abuse his discretion in denying a continuance to allow Mendez-Cortez to apply for adjustment of status under 8 U.S.C. § 1255(i), because, contrary to his contention, Mendez-Cortez was not then eligible for adjustment of status under that provision.

Mendez-Cortez’s challenge to the BIA’s decision to streamline his case is foreclosed by Falcon Carriche v. Ashcroft, 350 F.3d 845, 855 (9th Cir.2003)

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
