Sisca Manembu v. Eric Holder, Jr.

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit
Sisca Manembu v. Eric Holder, Jr., 470 F. App'x 606 (9th Cir. 2012)

Sisca Manembu v. Eric Holder, Jr.

Opinion

MEMORANDUM **

Sisea Manembu, a native and citizen of Indonesia, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order denying her motion to reopen. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review for an abuse of discretion the denial of a motion to reopen, Najmabadi v. Holder, 597 F.3d 983, 986 (9th Cir. 2010), and we deny the petition for review.

The BIA did not abuse its discretion by denying Manembu’s motion to reopen as untimely where the motion was filed over four years after the BIA’s final order, see 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(c)(2), and Manembu failed to present sufficient evidence of changed circumstances in Indonesia to qualify for the regulatory exception to the time limit for filing motions to reopen, see 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(c)(3)(H); Malty v. Ashcroft, 381 F.3d 942, 945 (9th Cir. 2004) (“The critical question is ... whether circumstances have changed sufficiently that a petitioner who previously did not have a *607 legitimate claim for asylum now has a well-founded fear of future persecution.”)..

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
