Ronald D. Richey, RONALD D. RICHEY & ASSOCIATES, Rockville, Maryland, for Petitioner. Peter D. Keisler, Assistant Attorney General, Jeffrey J. Bernstein, Senior Litigation Counsel, Timothy P.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. See Local Rule 36(c). PER CURIAM:

Catherine N. Gachoki, a native and citizen of Kenya, petitions

for review of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals

(“Board”) affirming the immigration judge’s denial of her

applications for asylum, withholding of removal, and protection

under the Convention Against Torture. We have reviewed the

administrative record and the Board’s decision and find no

reversible error. Accordingly, we deny the petition for review on

the reasoning of the Board. See In re: Gachoki, No. A75-843-584

(B.I.A. Feb. 13, 2003); see also

(b)(3),

1208.16(b)(1)(i)(B), (c)(3)(ii) (2003) (providing that an alien is

not eligible for asylum, withholding of removal, or protection

under the Convention Against Torture if internal relocation is a

reasonable option). We dispense with oral argument because the

facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the

materials before the court and argument would not aid the

decisional process.

PETITION DENIED
