PER CURIAM:
Negussie Mengesha H. Mariam, a native and citizen of
Ethiopia, seeks review of an order of the Board of Immigration
Appeals (Board) dismissing his appeal from the Immigration Judge
and denying his motion to reopen. We have reviewed the
administrative record and Mariam’s claims and find no error or
abuse of discretion in the Board’s decision. We accordingly
deny the petition for review for the reasons stated by the
Board. See In re: Mariam, (B.I.A. Nov. 4, 2008). 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
