Menjivar Guardado v. Holder
Opinion
MEMORANDUM **
Oscar Noel Menjivar Guardado, a native and citizen of El Salvador, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order denying his motion to reopen removal proceedings. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. Reviewing for abuse of discretion, Iturribarria v. INS, 321 F.3d 889, 894 (9th Cir. 2003), we deny the petition for review.
The BIA did not abuse its discretion in denying Menjivar Guardado’s motion to reopen because the motion was filed more than 3 years after the BIA’s June 30, 2003, order dismissing the underlying appeal, see 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(c)(2), and Menjivar Guardado failed to demonstrate that he acted with the due diligence required for equitable tolling, see Iturribarria, 321 F.3d at 897 (equitable tolling is available “when a petitioner is prevented from filing because of deception, fraud, or error, as long as the petitioner acts with due diligence”).
In light of this disposition, we do not consider Menjivar Guardado’s remaining contentions.
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
