MEMORANDUM **

Joel Ricardo Flores, a native and citizen of Honduras, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) or *551 der dismissing his appeal from an immigration judge’s decision denying his motion to reopen removal proceedings conducted in absentia. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review for an abuse of discretion the agency’s denial of a motion to reopen. Cano-Merida v. INS, 311 F.3d 960, 964 (9th Cir. 2002). We deny the petition for review.

The agency did not abuse its discretion in denying Flores’s motion to reopen where notice of the deportation hearing was sent by certified mail to Flores’ address of record, the same address where Flores had received the Order to Show Cause. See 8 U.S.C. § 1252b(c)(l) (repealed) (written notice shall be considered sufficient if provided at the most recent address provided by respondent). Flores has not provided any “substantial and probative evidence” to rebut the presumption of proper service. See Arrieta v. INS, 117 F.3d 429, 431 (9th Cir. 1997) (per curiam).

In light of our conclusion, we decline to address Flores’s contention that the BIA improperly found that he did not act with due diligence.

Flores’s argument that the BIA ignored his argument that actual service is required is belied by the record.

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
