PER CURIAM:

Brigida Romero-Vasquez and her minor son, natives and citizens of Guatemala,

petition for review of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals (Board) dismissing

their appeal from the Immigration Judge’s decision denying their applications for asylum,

withholding of removal, and protection under the Convention Against Torture (CAT). We

have thoroughly reviewed the record and conclude that the evidence does not compel a

ruling contrary to any of the administrative factual findings, see

8 U.S.C. § 1252

(b)(4)(B),

and that substantial evidence supports the denial of relief, see INS v. Elias-Zacarias,

502 U.S. 478, 481

(1992). Accordingly, we deny the petition for review for the reasons stated

by the Board. In re Romero-Vasquez (B.I.A. Sept. 27, 2021). 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.

PETITION DENIED
