   MEMORANDUM

Carmen Aldana, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions pro se for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“Board”) denial of her motion to reopen and reconsider the Board’s earlier decision affirming an immigration judge’s denial of her application for cancellation of removal. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1252.

In her motion to reopen and reconsider, Aldana contended that the agency erred in failing to consider her hardship factors in assessing her eligibility for cancellation of removal. However, the agency did not address hardship because Aldana indisputably could not meet the physical presence requirement. Accordingly, the Board did not abuse discretion in denying Aldana’s motion. See 8 U.S.C. § 1229b(b)(l) (stating the requirements of exceptional and extremely unusual hardship, good moral character and ten years of continuous physical presence in order to qualify for cancellation relief).

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
