   MEMORANDUM

We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252(a). We review de novo the BIA’s and IJ’s determinations of purely legal questions, and we review their factual findings for substantial evidence. Ali v. Holder, 637 F.3d 1025, 1028-29 (9th Cir.2011). Accordingly, we decide whether to grant or deny the petition for review based on the BIA’s or IJ’s reasoning rather than our own independent analysis of the record. Id. at 1029.

We find that substantial evidence supported the determination that Maharaj failed to establish a clear probability of future torture, and that the BIA and the IJ adequately conducted an individualized analysis. There was no due process error in the IJ’s handling of the case.

The Petition is DENIED. 
      
       This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
