versus

ALBERTO R. GONZALES, Attorney General,

Respondent.

On Petition for Review of an Order of the Board of Immigration Appeals. (A72-167-540)

Submitted: August 26, 2005 Decided: October 20, 2005

Before NIEMEYER, MOTZ, and SHEDD, Circuit Judges.

Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Andres Cayetano Benach, MAGGIO & KATTAR, Washington, D.C., for Petitioner. Peter D. Keisler, Assistant Attorney General, M. Jocelyn Lopez Wright, Assistant Director, Daniel E. Goldman, DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE, Washington, D.C., for Respondent.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

Ahsan Ul Abedin, a native and citizen of Bangladesh,

petitions for review of an order of the Board of Immigration

Appeals (“Board”) affirming, without opinion, the immigration

judge’s order denying his motion to reopen immigration proceedings.

We have reviewed the record and the immigration judge’s order and

find that the immigration judge did not abuse his discretion in

concluding that Abedin failed to establish that counsel rendered

ineffective assistance. See INS v. Doherty,

502 U.S. 314, 323-24

(1992) (setting forth standard of review). 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.
