the denial of a motion to reopen, Singh v. Gonzales, 491 F.3d 1090, 1095 (9th Cir.
2007), and we deny the petition for review.
The BIA acted within its discretion in denying as untimely Israelyan’s
motion to reopen because it was filed more than 90 days after the BIA’s final
removal order, see 8 C.F.R. §1003.2(c)(2), and Israelyan did not show that she
acted with the due diligence required for equitable tolling, see Singh, 491 F.3d at
1096-97.
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
