MEMORANDUM*
On Petition for Review of an Order of the
Board of Immigration Appeals
Submitted May 15, 2012**
Before: CANBY, GRABER, and M. SMITH, Circuit Judges.

review for 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 in denying Singh’s second motion to
reopen as time-barred and number-barred where the successive motion was filed
over four years after the BIA’s final decision, see 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(c)(2), and
Singh failed to present sufficient evidence of changed circumstances in India to
qualify for an exception to the time and number limits, see 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(c)(3)
(ii).
We reject Singh’s contention that the BIA did not adequately examine his
evidence because he has not overcome the presumption that the BIA reviewed the
record. See Fernandez v. Gonzales, 439 F.3d 592, 603 (9th Cir. 2006). We also
reject Singh’s contention that the BIA applied the wrong legal standard.
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
