Does the Court have jurisdiction to review the cancellation of removal determination?

MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from Rodriguez-Mendiola v. Garland, 19-72237 (9th Cir. 2021):

The BIA denied cancellation of removal as a matter of discretion and this court lacks jurisdiction to review such discretionary decisions. See 8 U.S.C. 1252(a)(2)(B)(i); see also Romero-Torres v. Ashcroft, 327 F.3d 887, 890 (9th Cir. 2003) (discussing the court's lack of jurisdiction to review a discretionary cancellation of removal determination and the related exception that the court retains jurisdiction to review "purely legal" questions).
