MEMORANDUM **

Domingo Rogelio Ayala-Ortiz, a native and citizen of El Salvador, petitions for *763 review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ order dismissing his appeal from an immigration judge’s denial of his motion to reopen deportation proceedings based on ineffective assistance of counsel. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review for abuse of discretion the denial of a motion to reopen. Avagyan v. Holder, 646 F.3d 672, 674 (9th Cir. 2011). We deny the petition for review.

The agency did not abuse its discretion in denying Ayala-Ortiz’s motion to reopen as untimely where he filed the motion twenty years after the March 14, 1990, final order of deportation, and fourteen years after the September 30, 1996, statutory motions deadline, see 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(c)(2), and Ayala-Ortiz failed to show the due diligence required for equitable tolling of the filing deadline, see Ava-gyan, 646 F.3d at 679.

In light of our disposition, we do not reach Ayala-Ortiz’s contention regarding the BIA’s interpretation of 8 C.F.R. § 1003.3(e). Ayala-Ortiz’s remaining contentions are unavailing.

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
