Wei Xing Lin v. Holder
Wei Xing Lin v. Holder
Opinion of the Court
SUMMARY ORDER
Petitioner Wei Xing Lin, a native and citizen of the People’s Republic of China, seeks review of a December 10, 2007 order of the BIA denying his motion to reopen. In re Wei Xing Lin, No. A077 978 134 (B.I.A. Dec. 10, 2007). We assume the parties’ familiarity with the underlying facts and procedural history in this case.
We review the agency’s denial of a motion to reopen for abuse of discretion. Ali v. Gonzales, 448 F.3d 515, 517 (2d Cir. 2006). Where the agency considers relevant evidence of country conditions in evaluating a motion to reopen, we review the agency’s factual findings under the substantial evidence standard. See Jian Hui Shao v. Mukasey, 546 F.3d 138, 169 (2d Cir. 2008). We find that the agency did not err in denying Lin’s motion to reopen.
For the foregoing reasons, the petition for review is DENIED. As we have completed our review, any stay of removal that the Court previously granted in this petition is VACATED, and any pending motion for a stay of removal in this petition is DISMISSED as moot. Any pending request for oral argument in this petition is DENIED in accordance with Federal Rule of Appellate Procedure 34(a)(2), and Second Circuit Local Rule 34(b).
