Balbir Singh v. Eric H. Holder Jr.

Opinion

MEMORANDUM **

Balbir Singh and his family, all natives and citizens of India, petition for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ decision denying their motion to reopen. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review for abuse of discretion motions to reopen, Perez v. Mukasey, 516 F.3d 770, 773 (9th Cir. 2008) and we deny the petition for review.

The BIA did not abuse its discretion in its March 28, 2008, order denying petitioners’ motion to reopen as untimely and numerically barred because it was the second motion to reopen, filed nearly three after the BIA’s final decision, see 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(c)(2), and the petitioners failed to present sufficient evidence of changed circumstances in India to qualify for the regulatory exception to the time and numerical limitation, see 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(c)(3)(h); see also Toufighi v. Mukasey, 538 F.3d 988, 996-97 (9th Cir. 2008) (underlying adverse credibility determination rendered evidence of changed circumstances immaterial).

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
