Montoya Parada v. Blanche
Opinion
NOT FOR PUBLICATION FILED UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS AUG 3 2026 MOLLY C. DWYER, CLERK U.S. COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT JENNY LISET MONTOYA PARADA, No. 25-3023 Agency No. Petitioner, A206-360-310 v. MEMORANDUM* TODD BLANCHE, Acting Attorney General, Respondent.
On Petition for Review of an Order of the Board of Immigration Appeals Submitted July 29, 2026** Before: McKEOWN, TALLMAN, and MENDOZA, JR., Circuit Judges.
Jenny Liset Montoya Parada, a native and citizen of El Salvador, petitions pro se for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order dismissing her appeal from an immigration judge’s decision denying her motion to reopen removal proceedings. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review for
* This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by Ninth Circuit Rule 36-3. abuse of discretion the denial of a motion to reopen. Mohammed v. Gonzales, 400 F.3d 785, 791 (9th Cir. 2005). We deny the petition for review.
The BIA did not abuse its discretion in denying the untimely motion to reopen where Montoya Parada failed to establish prima facie eligibility for relief.
See Ramirez-Munoz v. Lynch, 816 F.3d 1226, 1228 (9th Cir. 2016) (BIA may deny a motion to reopen for failure to establish prima facie eligibility for the relief sought).
We reject as unsupported by the record Montoya Parada’s contentions that the agency applied an incorrect standard or otherwise erred in its analysis.
The motion to stay removal is denied as moot.
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
