denial of a motion to reopen, Najmabadi v. Holder, 597 F.3d 983, 986 (9th
Cir. 2010), and we deny the petition for review.
The BIA did not abuse its discretion in denying Chahal’s motion to reopen
as untimely and number-barred because the successive motion was filed over six
years after the BIA’s final decision, see 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(c)(2), and Chahal failed
to demonstrate changed circumstances in India to qualify for the regulatory
exception to the time and number limitations, see 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(c)(3)(ii);
Najmabadi, 597 F.3d at 988-89.
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
