Rocio Ruiz Perales v. Eric H. Holder Jr.
Rocio Ruiz Perales v. Eric H. Holder Jr.
Opinion
MEMORANDUM **
Rocío Ruiz Perales, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order denying her motion to reopen removal proceedings. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review for abuse of discretion the denial of a motion to reopen, and review de novo questions of law. Mohammed v. Gonzales, 400 F.3d 785, 791-92 (9th Cir. 2005). We deny the petition for review.
Contrary to Ruiz Perales’ contention, the BIA applied the correct legal standard in denying her motion to reopen. See Ordonez v. INS, 345 F.3d 777, 785 (9th Cir. 2003).
The BIA acted within its broad discretion in determining that the evidence submitted with Ruiz Perales’ motion was insufficient to warrant reopening. See Singh v. INS, 295 F.3d 1037, 1039 (9th Cir. 2002) (the BIA’s denial of a motion to reopen shall be reversed only if it is “arbitrary, irrational, or contrary to law”).
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
