MOLLY C. DWYER, CLERK
U.S. COURT OF APPEALS
* This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent
except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
** The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision
without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2).

As Zhou acknowledges in his opening brief, we lack jurisdiction to review
the BIA’s discretionary decision not to reopen removal proceedings sua sponte.
See Mejia-Hernandez v. Holder, 633 F.3d 818, 823-24 (9th Cir. 2011).
In light of our disposition, we do not reach Zhou’s remaining contentions.
PETITION FOR REVIEW DISMISSED.
