MEMORANDUM*


2
Josephino Paano and his wife Josephine Reyes Paano, natives and citizens of the Philippines, petition for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals' (BIA) decision affirming the denial of their applications for suspension of deportation under 8 U.S.C. § 1254(a).  Because the BIA's final order of deportation was entered on December 3, 1996, the transitional rules of the Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act of 1996 (IIRIRA) apply.  See Kalaw v. INS, Nos. 97-70106, 97-70294, 97-70333, slip op. 14093, 14098-99 (9th Cir.  Dec. 1, 1997).  The BIA determined in its discretion that the Paanos failed to demonstrate extreme hardship.  We therefore lack jurisdiction.  See IIRIRA § 309(c)(4)(E);  Kalaw, slip op. at 14101-03.
