The following excerpt is from Munoz v. Lynch, 15-738 (2nd Cir. 2016):
2. We generally lack jurisdiction to review discretionary denial of cancellation of removal, but retain jurisdiction to review constitutional claims or questions of law related to such a denial. 8 U.S.C. 1252(a)(2)(B)(i), (D). An error of law includes "seriously mischaracteriz[ing]" or "totally overlook[ing]" evidence in the record. Mendez v. Holder, 566 F.3d 316, 323 (2d Cir. 2009).
