PER CURIAM:
Rosa Tibau Ponce, a native and citizen of Ecuador and
a citizen of Spain, petitions for review of an order of the
Board of Immigration Appeals (“Board”) denying her motion to
reopen. We have reviewed the record and the Board’s order and
conclude that the Board did not abuse its discretion in denying
the motion. See 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(a), (c) (2013). Accordingly,
although we grant Friends of Rule of Law in Ecuador’s motion to
file an amicus curiae brief, we deny the petition for review.
See In re: Tibau Ponce (B.I.A. Nov. 15, 2013). We dispense with
oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are
adequately presented in the materials before this court and
argument would not aid the decisional process.
PETITION DENIED
