On Petition for Review of an Order of the Board of Immigration Appeals.

Before GREGORY, Chief Judge, WILKINSON, and DIAZ, Circuit Judges.

Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM:

Robin Augusto Garcia-Martinez, a native and citizen of El Salvador, petitions for

review of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals (Board) dismissing his appeal

from the immigration judge’s denial of his requests for asylum, withholding of removal,

and protection under the Convention Against Torture (CAT). We have thoroughly

reviewed the record, including the transcript of the merits hearing and all supporting

evidence. We conclude that the record evidence does not compel a ruling contrary to any

of the agency’s factual findings, see

8 U.S.C. § 1252

(b)(4)(B) (2018), and that substantial

evidence supports the Board’s decision, see INS v. Elias-Zacarias,

502 U.S. 478, 481

(1992) (stating standard of review for denial of asylum); Dankam v. Gonzales,

495 F.3d 113, 124

(4th Cir. 2007) (stating standard of review for denial of CAT protection).

Accordingly, we deny the petition for review for the reasons stated by the Board.

In re Garcia-Martinez, (B.I.A. Dec. 20, 2019). We dispense with oral argument because

the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before this court

and argument would not aid the decisional process.
