Chun Guang Gao v. United States Attorney General
Opinion of the Court
SUMMARY ORDER
Petitioner Chun Guang Gao, a native and citizen of the People’s Republic of China, seeks review of a September 28, 2007 order of the BIA denying his second motion to reopen. In re Chun Guang Gao, No. A070 906 013 (B.I.A. Sept. 28, 2007). We assume the parties’ familiarity with the underlying facts and procedural history in this case.
We review the BIA’s denial of a motion to reopen for abuse of discretion. Ali v. Gonzales, 448 F.3d 515, 517 (2d Cir. 2006). When the BIA considers relevant evidence of country conditions in evaluating a motion to reopen, we review the BIA’s factual findings under the substantial evidence standard. See Jian Hui Shao v. Mukasey, 546 F.3d 138, 169 (2d Cir. 2008).
The BIA did not err in denying Gao’s motion to reopen as untimely. See 8 U.S.C. § 1229a (c)(7)(C); see also 8 C.F.R.
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).
