discretion the denial of a motion to reopen, Perez v. Mukasey, 516 F.3d 770, 773
(9th Cir. 2008), and we deny the petition for review.
The BIA did not abuse its discretion in denying Singh’s motion to reopen as
untimely because the motion was filed more than 90 days after the issuance of the
BIA’s February 9, 2007, order, see 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2, and Singh failed to establish
his motion warranted tolling of the 90-day filing deadline, see Iturribarria v. INS,
321 F.3d 889, 897 (9th Cir. 2003) (equitable tolling is available to petitioner who is
prevented from filing due to deception, fraud or error, and exercises due diligence
in discovering such circumstances).
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
