No. 21-60963

of a motion to reopen for abuse of discretion. Ramos-Portillo v. Barr, 919 F.3d 955, 958 (5th Cir. 2019). Legal conclusions are reviewed de novo. Id. We have expressly rejected Salazar’s first and second arguments on review that a notice to appear without a date and time of the removal hearing deprives the immigration court of jurisdiction or is otherwise defective outside of the in-absentia or stop-time rule context. See Garcia v. Garland, 28 F.4th 644, 646-48 (5th Cir. 2022). Thus, his arguments regarding equitable tolling need not be addressed. See INS v. Bagamasbad, 429 U.S. 24, 25 (1976) (“As a general rule courts and agencies are not required to make findings on issues the decision of which is unnecessary to the results they reach.”).

Finally, we lack jurisdiction to review Salazar’s third issue on review that the BIA erred in failing to exercise its sua sponte authority to reopen his case. See Mejia v. Whitaker, 913 F.3d 482, 490 (5th Cir. 2019).

Accordingly, Salazar’s petition for review is DENIED in part and DISMISSED in part.
