§ 1252. We review for abuse of discretion the denial of a motion to reopen.
Iturribarria v. INS, 321 F.3d 889, 894 (9th Cir. 2003). We deny the petition for

The BIA did not abuse its discretion in denying Lopez Alonso’s motion to
reopen as untimely where the motion was filed over six months after the BIA’s
final decision. See 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(c)(2).
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
