PER CURIAM:
Kpegnon Assoumanou, a native and citizen of Togo,
petitions for review of an order of the Board of Immigration
Appeals (“Board”) dismissing her appeal from the immigration
judge’s decision denying her motion to reopen. We have
thoroughly reviewed the motion, including Assoumanou’s affidavit
and the various documentary exhibits and conclude that the Board
did not abuse its discretion. See INS v. Doherty, 502 U.S. 314,
323-24 (1992); Mosere v. Mukasey, 552 F.3d 397, 400 (4th Cir.
2009); see also 8 C.F.R. § 1003.23(b)(3) (2014). We are without
jurisdiction to review the Board’s decision not to sua sponte
reopen the proceedings. Mosere, 552 F.3d at 400-01.
Accordingly, we deny the petition for review for the reasons
stated by the Board. See In re: Assoumanou (B.I.A. Jan. 31,
2014). We dispense with oral argument because the facts and
legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials
before this court and argument would not aid the decisional
process.
PETITION DENIED
