On Petition for Review of an Order of the Board of Immigration Appeals. (A72-166-950)

Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Mirza Muhammad Jaffer, Petitioner Pro Se. Mona Maria Yousif, UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE, Washington, D.C., for Respondent.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM:

Mirza Muhammad Jaffer, a native of India and a citizen of

Pakistan, petitions for review of an order of the Board of

Immigration Appeals (“Board”) dismissing his appeal from the

immigration judge’s denial of his motion to reopen immigration

proceedings. We have reviewed the record and the Board’s order and

find that the Board did not abuse its discretion in upholding the

denial of Jaffer’s motion. See 8 C.F.R. § 1003.23(b)(1)(iv)

(2007). Accordingly, we deny the petition for review for the

reasons stated by the Board. See In re: Jaffer, A72-166-950

(B.I.A. Jan. 19, 2007). We dispense with oral argument because the

facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the

materials before the court and argument would not aid the

decisional process.

PETITION DENIED
