Of the Ninth Circuit, sitting by designation.
Per Curiam. In his petition to this court to review the
decision of the Board of Immigration Appeals, Sumilat raises only
one issue within our jurisdiction: whether there was substantial
evidence to support the Board’s finding that Sumilat failed to
demonstrate he was eligible for withholding of removal.
Substantial evidence supports the Board’s decision, and the record
does not compel a contrary conclusion. See Wang v. Mukasey, 508
F.3d 80, 83 (1st Cir. 2007). Although Sumilat also disputes the
rejection of his asylum claim, the Board's finding that no changed
circumstances existed to justify the untimely petition is a factual
one over which we lack jurisdiction. 8 U.S.C. § 1158(a)(3); Silva
v. Gonzales, 463 F.3d 68, 71-72 (1st Cir. 2006). For the reasons
stated by the Board, the petition for review is denied.
It is so ordered.
