Jaimes v. Gonzales

Opinion of the Court

MEMORANDUM**

This is a petition for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order denying petitioner’s motion to reopen.

A review of petitioner’s response to the court’s order to show cause indicates that the questions raised in this petition for review are so insubstantial as not to require further argument. See United States v. Hooton, 693 F.2d 857, 858 (9th Cir. 1982) (per curiam) (stating standard). A party may file only one motion to reopen removal proceedings, and that motion must be filed not later than ninety days after the date on which the final order of removal was entered. See 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(c)(2). The Board of Immigration Appeals therefore did not abuse its discretion in denying petitioner’s motion to reopen which was filed over a year after the deadline for filing motions to reopen. Accordingly, this petition for review is denied.

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.

This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
