Full Opinion
MEMORANDUM ** Joga Singh, a native and citizen of India, petitions pro se for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order denying as untimely his motion to reopen deportation proceedings. To the extent we have jurisdiction, it is conferred by 8 U.S.C. § 1252 . We review for abuse of discretion, see Movsisian v. Ashcroft, 395 *661 F.3d 1095, 1098 (9th Cir.2005), and we deny in part and dismiss in part the petition for review. The BIA acted within its discretion in denying Singh’s second motion to reopen, filed more than four years after the BIA’s final deportation order, as both untimely and numerically barred, see 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2 (c)(2) (permitting only one motion to reopen to be filed within ninety days of BIA’s decision), where Singh failed to demonstrate changed circumstances in India to qualify for the regulatory exception to the time and numerical limitations, see 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2 (e)(3)(ii). We are without jurisdiction to review Singh’s challenge to the BIA’s June 6, 2000 dismissal of his appeal on the merits, because this petition for review is not timely as to that decision. See 8 U.S.C. § 1252 (b)(1); Singh v. INS, 315 F.3d 1186, 1188 (9th Cir.2003). PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED in part, DISMISSED in part. This disposition is not appropriate for publication and may not be cited to or by the courts of this circuit except as provided by Ninth Circuit Rule 36-3.
