               Respondent.


                      On Petition for Review of an Order of the
                          Board of Immigration Appeals

                             Submitted December 9, 2015**

Before:        WALLACE, RAWLINSON, and IKUTA, Circuit Judges.

decision denying her application for asylum and withholding of removal. Our

jurisdiction is governed by 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We dismiss the petition for review.

      The agency found Xu not credible based on internally inconsistent evidence,

inconsistencies between her testimony and application, and on vague, confusing,

and non-responsive testimony. We lack jurisdiction to review Xu’s contention that

the agency should have considered the eleven-month gap between her immigration

hearings in assessing her credibility. See Barron v. Ashcroft, 358 F.3d 674, 677

(9th Cir. 2004) (court lacks jurisdiction to review claims not presented to the

agency). Apart from this contention, Xu does not raise any substantive challenge

to the agency’s adverse credibility findings. See Martinez-Serrano v. INS, 94 F.3d

1256, 1259 (“Issues raised in a brief that are not supported by argument are

deemed abandoned.”).

      PETITION FOR REVIEW DISMISSED.
