discretion the denial of a motion to reopen. Toufighi v. Mukasey, 538 F.3d 988,
992 (9th Cir. 2007) . We deny in part and dismiss in part the petition for review.
The BIA did not abuse its discretion in denying Barua’s motion to reopen as
untimely, where he filed the motion more than two years after his final
administrative order of removal, see 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(c)(2), and failed to provide
sufficient evidence of materially changed country conditions to invoke the
exception to the filing deadline, see 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(c)(3)(ii); Toufighi, 538 F.3d
at 996 (setting forth requirements for prevailing on a motion to reopen based on
changed country conditions).
Barua’s contentions that the BIA ignored evidence and misstated evidentiary
standards are not supported by the record.
We lack jurisdiction to consider Barua’s challenge to the BIA’s 2011
dismissal of his direct appeal because this petition is not timely as to that order.
See 8 U.S.C. § 1252(b)(1); see also Stone v. I.N.S., 514 U.S. 386, 405 (1995).
Respondent’s motion to take judicial notice of filings made in petitioner’s
prior petition for review to this court (Docket Entry No. 16) is denied as
unnecessary.
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED in part; DISMISSED in part.
