Sillah v. Gonzales

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM:

Ousman M. Sillah, a native and citizen of Gambia, petitions for review of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals (Board) denying as untimely his motion to reopen immigration proceedings. We have reviewed the record and the Board’s order and find that the Board did not abuse its discretion in denying the motion to reopen. See INS v. Doherty, 502 U.S. 314, 323-24, 112 S.Ct. 719, 116 L.Ed.2d 823 (1992); 8 *433C.F.R. § 1003.23(b)(4)(ii) (2006). Accordingly, we deny the petition for review for the reasons stated by the Board. See In Re: Sillah, No. A72-000-231 (B.I.A. June 3, 2005). We deny Sillah’s Motion for Stay of Proceedings and 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
