               Respondent.



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

Before:        FERNANDEZ, GOULD, and M. SMITH, Circuit Judges.

        Enrique Rodriguez-Mancilla, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions for

cancellation of removal. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We

review for substantial evidence the agency’s continuous physical presence

determination, Landin-Zavala v. Gonzales, 488 F.3d 1150, 1151 (9th Cir. 2007),

review for abuse of discretion the denial of a motion to continue, and review de

novo claims of due process violations, Sandoval-Luna v. Mukasey, 526 F.3d 1243,

1246 (9th Cir. 2008) (per curiam).   We deny the petition for review.

       Substantial evidence supports the agency’s determination that Rodriguez-

Mancilla did not meet the continuous physical presence requirement because

Rodriguez-Mancilla was personally served an order to show cause in 1993 and

testified that he signed for voluntary departure and exited the country. See

Vasquez-Lopez v. Ashcroft, 343 F.3d 961, 972 (9th Cir. 2003) (per curiam) (a

departure pursuant to an order of voluntary departure constitutes a break in

continuous physical presence). Rodriguez-Mancilla has not alleged that he was

misled about the consequences of accepting voluntary departure or that he

otherwise failed to obtain due process in the 1993 proceedings. Cf. Ibarra-Flores

v. Gonzales, 439 F.3d 614, 620 (9th Cir. 2006).

       The agency did not abuse its discretion in denying Rodriguez-Mancilla’s

motion for a continuance where he did not demonstrate good cause. See Baires v.

INS, 856 F.2d 89, 91 (9th Cir. 1988); 8 C.F.R. § 1003.29. It follows that the


JTK/Research                              2                                     06-70408
agency did not violate due process by denying Rodriguez-Mancilla’s motion to

continue. See Lata v. INS, 204 F.3d 1241, 1246 (9th Cir.2000) (requiring error for

a due process violation).

       We reject Rodriguez-Mancilla’s due process claim regarding the IJ’s

reliance on hearsay evidence, because any error committed by the IJ was corrected

when the BIA’s decision did not rely on the evidence in question. See Colmenar v.

INS, 210 F.3d 967, 971 (9th Cir. 2000) (requiring prejudice to prevail on a due

process challenge); Garrovillas v. INS, 156 F.3d 1010, 1013 (9th Cir. 1998) (any

error committed by the IJ may be rendered harmless by the BIA’s application of

the correct legal standard).

       PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
