PER CURIAM:
Jacqueline Gerda Davies, a native and citizen of Sierra Leone,
seeks review of a final order of the Board of Immigration Appeals
(“Board”) denying her claims for suspension of deportation and
voluntary departure and ordering her deported. We find that
substantial evidence supports the Board’s decision that Davies’
failure to notify the INS of address changes was willful and not
reasonably excusable. We further find we are without jurisdiction
to review the Board’s discretionary decision that Davies was
ineligible for suspension of deportation or voluntary removal.
Okpa v. INS, 266 F.3d 313, 317 (4th Cir. 2001). Finally, we find
substantial evidence supports the Board’s finding that Davies did
not establish good moral character.
Therefore, we deny Davies’ petition for review. 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
