PER CURIAM: Rosalva Veronica Pena-Cartagena, a native and citizen of El Salvador, petitions for review of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals (Board) denying her untimely motion to reopen. We have reviewed the administrative record and Pena-Cartagena’s claims and conclude that the Board did not abuse its discretion in denying the motion. See Mosere v. Mukasey, 552 F.3d 397, 400 (4th Cir. 2009). Accordingly, we deny the petition for review for the reasons stated by the Board. See In re Pena-Cartagena (B.I.A. Jan. 25, 2022). 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
