PER CURIAM:
Tajinder Singh, a native and citizen of India, petitions
for review of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals
(“Board”) denying as untimely his motion to reopen removal
proceedings. We have reviewed the administrative record and find
no abuse of discretion in the Board’s order. See 8 C.F.R.
§ 1003.2(a) (2007) (“The decision to grant or deny a motion to
reopen . . . is within the discretion of the Board . . . .”);
Barry v. Gonzales, 445 F.3d 741, 744 (4th Cir. 2006) (stating abuse
of discretion standard), cert. denied, 127 S. Ct. 1147 (2007). We
therefore deny the petition for review for the reasons stated by
the Board. See In re: Singh, No. A73-570-136 (B.I.A. May 8, 2007).
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
