Singh v. Gonzales
Singh v. Gonzales
Opinion of the Court
MEMORANDUM
Lakhveer Singh, a native and citizen of India, petitions pro se for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order denying his motion to reopen removal proceedings to apply for asylum based on changed country conditions. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review for abuse of discretion, see Bolshakov v. INS, 133 F.3d 1279, 1282 (9th Cir. 1998), and we deny the petition for review.
We lack jurisdiction to review the BIA’s March 2, 2004 dismissal of Singh’s direct appeal from the immigration judge’s decision because he failed to timely file a petition for review of that order. See Stone v. INS, 514 U.S. 386, 405-06, 115 S.Ct. 1537, 131 L.Ed.2d 465 (1995); Martinez-Serrano v. INS, 94 F.3d 1256, 1258 (9th Cir. 1996).
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
