Mitokpe v. Gonzales

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM:

Monlogni Clement Mitokpe, a native and citizen of Togo, petitions for review of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals (Board) denying his motion to reopen. 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 on the ground that it was untimely filed. See 8 U.S.C.A. § 1229a(e)(7)(C) (West 2005 & Supp. 2007) *118(establishing a ninety-day time limitation for filing a motion to reopen); 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(c)(2) (2007) (same); INS v. Doherty, 502 U.S. 314, 323-24, 112 S.Ct. 719, 116 L.Ed.2d 823 (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.

PETITION DENIED.
