PER CURIAM:
Linda Orliana, a native and citizen of Indonesia,
petitions for review of an order of the Board of Immigration
Appeals (Board) adopting and affirming the Immigration Judge’s
denial of her application for asylum and withholding of removal.
Orliana contends that she established eligibility for asylum. As
the Board concluded that the asylum application was untimely, we
find that consideration of Orliana’s asylum claim is barred. See
8 U.S.C. § 1158(a)(3) (2000).
Orliana also challenges the finding that she failed to
qualify for withholding of removal. See Chen v. INS, 195 F.3d 198,
205 (4th Cir. 1999); INS v. Cardoza-Fonseca, 480 U.S. 421, 430
(1987). 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 Orliana fails to show that the evidence compels a
contrary result.
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
