denial of a motion to reopen, Mohammed v. Gonzales, 400 F.3d 785, 791-92 (9th
Cir. 2005), and we deny the petition for review.
The BIA did not abuse its discretion in denying Sanchez-Luna’s motion to
reopen for failure to establish prima facie eligibility for adjustment of status. See
INS v. Abudu, 485 U.S. 94, 104 (1988).
The BIA sufficiently articulated its reasons for denying his motion. See
Najmabadi v. Holder, 597 F.3d 983, 990 (9th Cir. 2010).
We deny Sanchez-Luna’s request for judicial notice of the extra-record
evidence he submitted with his opening brief. See Dent v. Holder, 627 F.3d 365,
371 (9th Cir. 2010) (stating standard for review of out-of-record evidence).
In light of this disposition, we need not reach Sanchez-Luna’s remaining
contention regarding numerical limitations on his motion. See Simeonov v.
Ashcroft, 371 F.3d 532, 538 (9th Cir. 2004).
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
