Ahamed v. Mukasey

MEMORANDUM ** Rakib Ahamed petitions for review of a Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order denying his second motion to reopen. We review the denial of a motion to reopen for abuse of discretion. See Rodriguez-Lariz v. INS, 282 F.3d 1218, 1222 (9th Cir.2002). The BIA did not abuse its discretion in denying petitioner’s motion to reopen because the motion to reopen was untimely and number-barred, and did not meet any of the regulatory exceptions. See 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2 (c)(2), (3); Rodriguez-Lariz v. INS, 282 F.3d 1218, 1222 (9th Cir.2002). Accordingly, respondent’s unopposed motion for summary disposition is granted because the questions raised by this petition for review are so insubstantial as not to require further argument. See United States v. Hooton, 693 F.2d 857, 858 (9th Cir.1982) (per curiam). All other pending motions are denied as moot. The temporary stay of removal confirmed by Ninth Circuit General Order 6.4(c) shall continue in effect until issuance of the mandate. PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED. This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
