Ahmad Ali v. Eric H. Holder Jr.
Ahmad Ali v. Eric H. Holder Jr.
Opinion
MEMORANDUM. **
Ahmad Ali, a native and citizen of India, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order denying his 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. Najma- *797 badi v. Holder, 597 F.3d 983, 986 (9th Cir. 2010). We deny the petition for review.
The BIA did not abuse its discretion in denying Ali’s motion to reopen as untimely because he filed the motion nearly four years after the BIA issued its final order of removal, see 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(c)(2), and he failed to present sufficient evidence of changed circumstances in India to qualify for an exception to the time limit for filing motions to reopen, see 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(c)(3) (ii).
Ali’s contention that the BIA applied an improper legal standard in denying his motion to reopen is belied by the record.
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.
