Javier Ramirez-Rivera v. Eric Holder, Jr.
Javier Ramirez-Rivera v. Eric Holder, Jr.
Opinion
MEMORANDUM **
Javier Ramirez-Rivera, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order denying his motion to reopen. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review for abuse of discretion the denial of a motion to reopen, Ghahremani v. Gonzales, 498 F.3d 993, 997-98 (9th Cir. 2007), and we deny the petition for review.
The BIA did not abuse its discretion in denying Ramirez-Rivera’s motion to reopen to apply for adjustment of status where he failed to demonstrate prima facie *677 eligibility for the requested relief. See Malty v. Ashcroft, 381 F.3d 942, 947-48 (9th Cir. 2004) (alien demonstrates prima facie eligibility for relief countenancing reopening where the evidence reveals a reasonable likelihood that the statutory requirements for relief have been satisfied).
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9 th Cir. R. 36-3.
