Salim Habib, a native and citizen of Pakistan, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’s (BIA) denial of his motion to reopen his proceedings to apply for an adjustment of status. The BIA determined that Habib’s motion to reopen was untimely. See 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(c)(2).

This court reviews the denial of a motion to reopen “under a highly deferential abuse of discretion standard.” Manzano-Garcia v. Gonzales, 413 F.3d 462, 469 (5th Cir. 2005). “Such discretion is not to be disturbed ‘so long as it is not capricious, racially invidious, utterly without foundation in the evidence, or otherwise so aberrational that it is arbitrary rather than the result of any perceptible rational approach.’” Id. (quoting Pritchett v. INS, 993 F.2d 80, 83 (5th Cir. 1993)). Habib has not shown that he can meet this high standard.

The petition for review is DENIED, and the motion to dismiss for lack of jurisdiction is also DENIED.
