MEMORANDUM*
On Petition for Review of an Order of the
Board of Immigration Appeals
Submitted April 17, 2012**
Before: LEAVY, PAEZ, and BEA, Circuit Judges.
Yuliya Kancheva Yankova, a native and citizen of Bulgaria, petitions for
review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order denying her motion to
reopen. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review for an abuse of
discretion, Toufighi v. Mukasey, 538 F.3d 988, 992 (9th Cir. 2008), and we deny

the petition for review.
The BIA did not abuse its discretion by denying Yankova’s motion to
reopen because the BIA considered the evidence she submitted and acted within its
broad discretion in determining that the evidence was insufficient to warrant
reopening. See id. at 996-97 (prior adverse credibility determination rendered
motion to reopen evidence immaterial); Najmabadi v. Holder, 597 F.3d 983, 989
(9th Cir. 2010) (evidence in motion must have “individualized relevancy”).
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
