the denial of a motion to reopen, Toufighi v. Mukasey, 538 F.3d 988, 992 (9th Cir.
2008), and we deny the petition for review.
The agency did not abuse its discretion in denying Ayala’s untimely motion
to reopen because he failed to establish prima facie eligibility for relief. See 8
C.F.R. §1003.23(b); see also Toufighi, 538 F.3d at 996-97 (evidence must establish
prima facie eligibility for relief sought).
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
