Joghinder Singh v. Eric Holder, Jr., 548 F. App'x 442 (9th Cir. 2013)

Joghinder Singh v. Eric Holder, Jr.

Opinion

MEMORANDUM **

Agus Widada, a native and citizen of Indonesia, 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 BIA’s denial of a motion to reopen. Najmabadi v. Holder, 597 F.3d 983, 986 (9th Cir. 2010). We deny the petition for review.

*443 The BIA did not abuse its discretion in denying Widada’s motion to reopen as untimely because the motion was filed nearly four years after the BIA’s final administrative order, see 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(c)(2), and Widada failed to establish a prima facie case for relief, see Najmabadi, 597 F.3d at 986; Halim v. Holder, 590 F.3d 971, 978 (9th Cir. 2009) (“[E]ven where an applicant has shown membership in a disfavored group, he or she must still present some evidence of individualized risk.”). We reject Widada’s contention that the BIA rejected evidence “out of hand,” or that the BIA otherwise abused its discretion in denying his motion.

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
