MEMORANDUM **

Ricardo Topete Curiel, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ order summarily affirming an immigration judge’s (“IJ”) order denying his motion to reopen removal proceedings conducted in absen-tia. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1252. Reviewing for abuse of discretion, Celis-Castellano v. Ashcroft, 298 F.3d 888, 890 (9th Cir. 2002), we deny the petition for review.

The IJ did not abuse her discretion in denying Topete Curiel’s motion to reopen because he did not meet his burden to establish that his panic attack constituted “exceptional circumstances” under 8 U.S.C. § 1229a(e)(l). See id. at 892 (agency properly denied motion to reopen supported only by alien’s declaration that he suffered an asthma attack and hospital form that did not indicate severity of illness).

Petitioner’s remaining contentions are not supported by the record.

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
