Susano-Garcia v. Holder

Opinion

MEMORANDUM ** *618 view of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order denying his motion to reopen deportation proceedings. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review for abuse of discretion the denial of a motion to reopen, Iturribarria v. INS, 321 F.3d 889, 894 (9th Cir. 2003), and we deny the petition for review.

*617 Jorge Fernando Murga-Aquino, a native and citizen of Guatemala, petitions for re-

*618 The BIA did not abuse its discretion in denying Murga-Aquino’s motion to reopen as untimely because it was filed five years after the BIA’s final order of removal, see 8 U.S.C. § 1229a(c)(7)(C)(i) (motion to reopen must be filed within 90 days of final order of removal), and Murga-Aquino did not show he was entitled to equitable tolling, see Iturribarria, 321 F.3d at 897 (deadline for filing motion to reopen can be equitably tolled “when petitioner is prevented from filing because of deception, fraud, or error, as long as the petitioner acts with due diligence”).

Murga-Aquino’s remaining contentions are unavailing.

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
