Akinwande v. Gonzales
Akinwande v. Gonzales
Opinion
Patra Wuraola AMnwande, a native and citizen of Nigeria, petitions for review of a Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“Board”) order denying her motion to reconsider the denial of a motion to reconsider. We deny the petition for review.
Akinwande devotes her entire brief to the Board’s October 28, 2003 order dismissing her appeal from the immigration judge’s decision denying relief. Because Akinwande did not file a timely petition for review from that order, this court is without jurisdiction to conduct a review. See 8 U.S.C. § 1252(b)(1) (2000); Stone v. INS, 514 U.S. 386, 405, 115 S.Ct. 1537, 131 L.Ed.2d 465 (1995).
Because Akinwande may not file a motion to reconsider an order denying a motion to reconsider, the Board did not abuse its discretion denying the motion. See 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(b)(2) (2005).
Accordingly, we deny the petition for' review. 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.
