Madrigal v. Holder

September 30, 2009

The Court lacks jurisdiction to review the agency’s discretionary determination that Madrigal failed to show exceptional and extremely unusual hardship to a
qualifying relative. Trying to recast traditional abuse of discretion challenges as due process claims, as Madrigal does, does not constitute colorable constitutional claims that would invoke the Court’s jurisdiction.
