United States v. Cordova-Soto, 804 F.3d 714 (5th Cir. Oct. 23, 2015) (rejecting claims that Immigration Judge's failure to make express determination of the voluntariness of pro se alien's waiver of rights and stipulation of removability, and ICE agent's failure to explain to her that there was a possibility that she could become eligible for discretionary relief from removal rendered removal proceedings fundamentally unfair).

Note: The case depends heavily on the particular facts underlying this decision. The Fifth Circuit also relied upon United States v. Lopez"Ortiz, 313 F.3d 225, 231 (5th Cir.2002) (eligibility for discretionary relief from removal is not a liberty or property interest deserving of due process protection).
