PER CURIAM:
Sekouba Faty, a native and citizen of Mali, petitions for
review of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals (“Board”)
denying his motion to reopen immigration proceedings. We have
reviewed the record and the Board’s order and find that the Board
did not abuse its discretion in denying Faty’s motion to reopen.
See 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(a) (2004); INS v. Doherty, 502 U.S. 314,
323-24 (1992). As found by the Board, the new documents submitted
by Faty fail to resolve the credibility problems that were present
at his immigration hearing and fail to establish his eligibility
for asylum, withholding of removal, or protection under the
Convention Against Torture. Accordingly, we deny the petition for
review. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal
contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the
court and argument would not aid the decisional process.
PETITION DENIED
