abuse of discretion, Iturribarria v. INS, 321 F.3d 889, 894 (9th Cir. 2003), we deny
the petition for review.
The BIA did not abuse its discretion in denying petitioners’ motion to
reopen because the successive motion to reopen was filed more than five years
after the BIA’s March 11, 2003, order dismissing the underlying appeal, see 8
C.F.R. § 1003.2(c)(2) (motion to reopen generally must be filed within 90 days of
the final administrative order), and petitioners failed to establish grounds for
equitable tolling, see Iturribarria, 321 F.3d at 897 (equitable tolling available
“when a petitioner is prevented from filing because of deception, fraud, or error, as
long as the petitioner acts with due diligence”).
Respondent’s motion to strike is denied as moot.
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
