PER CURIAM:
Kamal Bittar, a native and citizen of Syria, petitions
for review of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals
(“Board”) denying his motion to reopen immigration proceedings. We
have reviewed the record and the Board’s order and find that the
Board did not abuse its discretion in denying the motion to reopen.
See 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(a) (2006); Stewart v. INS, 181 F.3d 587, 595
(4th Cir. 1999). Accordingly, we deny the petition for review for
the reasons stated by the Board. See In re: Bittar, No.
A72-166-769 (B.I.A. Jan. 11, 2006). 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
