Submitted: October 27, 2004 Decided: November 15, 2004

Meijuan Zheng, Petitioner Pro Se. M. Jocelyn Lopez Wright, UNITED
STATES DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE, Washington, D.C., for Respondent.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Meijuan Zheng, a native and citizen of China, seeks
review of a decision of the Board of Immigration Appeals affirming
the Immigration Judge’s denial of her applications for asylum,
withholding of removal, and protection under the Convention Against
Torture (CAT).
Zheng claims she established eligibility for asylum and
withholding of removal.* To obtain reversal of a determination
denying eligibility for relief, an alien “must show that the
evidence he presented was so compelling that no reasonable
factfinder could fail to find the requisite fear of persecution.”
INS v. Elias-Zacarias, 502 U.S. 478, 483-84 (1992). We have
reviewed the evidence of record and conclude that Zheng fails to
show that the evidence compels a contrary result. Zheng thus
cannot meet the higher standard for withholding of removal. See
INS v. Cardoza-Fonseca, 480 U.S. 421, 430 (1987).
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
*
Zheng does not dispute the denial of CAT relief.
