the denial of a motion to reopen, Lin v. Holder, 588 F.3d 981, 984 (9th Cir. 2009),
and we deny the petition for review.
The BIA did not abuse its discretion in denying Bhatti’s motion to reopen,
where Bhatti failed to demonstrate a change in country conditions in Pakistan. See
8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(c)(3)(ii); Lin, 588 F.3d at 988-89 (BIA did not abuse its
discretion in denying a motion to reopen where the evidence submitted was
consistent with evidence presented to the IJ, and did not show any change in
country conditions). Bhatti’s contention that the BIA applied an incorrect legal
standard in ruling on his motion to reopen is not supported by the record.
We reject Bhatti’s contention that the BIA overlooked some of his evidence,
because he has not overcome the presumption that the BIA reviewed the record in
its entirety. See Fernandez v. Gonzales, 439 F.3d 592, 603 (9th Cir. 2006).
Contrary to Bhatti’s contention, there is no indication in the BIA’s order that it
failed to consider Bhatti’s claims for withholding of removal and protection under
the Convention Against Torture.
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
