Oyeniran v. Holder, 672 F.3d 800, 806 (9th Cir. 2012). We deny the petition for
review.
The BIA did not abuse its discretion in denying Rodriguez-Fregoso’s motion
to reopen where she failed to demonstrate that the evidence she sought to offer was
not available and could not have been discovered or presented at the former
hearing. See 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(c)(1); Guzman v. I.N.S., 318 F.3d 911, 913 (9th
Cir. 2003) (no abuse of discretion where evidence was previously available and
capable of discovery prior to former hearing).
The temporary stay of removal remains in place until issuance of the
mandate.
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
