Gurvinder Singh v. Eric H. Holder Jr.

FILED NOT FOR PUBLICATION OCT 25 2010 MOLLY C. DWYER, CLERK UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS U .S. C O U R T OF APPE ALS FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT GURVINDER SINGH, No. 08-73382 Petitioner, Agency No. A096-145-170 v. MEMORANDUM * ERIC H. HOLDER, Jr., Attorney General, Respondent. On Petition for Review of an Order of the Board of Immigration Appeals Submitted October 19, 2010 ** Before: O’SCANNLAIN, TALLMAN, and BEA, Circuit Judges. Gurvinder Singh, a native and citizen of India, petitions for review for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order denying his motion to reopen. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review for abuse of * This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3. ** The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2). discretion the denial of a motion to reopen, Iturribarria v. INS, 321 F.3d 889, 894 (9th Cir. 2003), and we deny the petition for review. The BIA did not abuse its discretion in denying Singh’s motion to reopen as time-barred because it was filed one year after the BIA’s final order of removal, see 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(c)(2), and Singh did not demonstrate that equitable tolling was warranted, see Iturribarria, 321 F.3d at 897. Singh’s contention that the BIA abused its discretion by failing to consider his claim against Mr. Heera is not supported by the record. PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED. 2 08-73382
