Weldetensaye v. Holder

UNPUBLISHED UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT No. 10-2042 MICHAEL ZEFERU WELDETENSAYE, Petitioner, v. ERIC H. HOLDER, JR., Attorney General, Respondent. On Petition for Review of an Order of the Board of Immigration Appeals. Submitted: May 4, 2011 Decided: May 10, 2011 Before DUNCAN, AGEE, and WYNN, Circuit Judges. Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion. David Allen Garfield, GARFIELD LAW GROUP LLP, Washington, D.C., for Petitioner. Tony West, Assistant Attorney General, Jennifer Levings, Senior Litigation Counsel, Kristen Giuffreda Chapman, Office of Immigration Litigation, UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE, Washington, D.C., for Respondent. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM: Michael Zeferu Weldetensaye, a native and citizen of Ethiopia, petitions for review of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals (“Board”) denying his motion to reconsider. We have reviewed the administrative record and the Board’s order and find that the Board did not abuse its discretion in denying the motion. See 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(a) (2010); Narine v. Holder, 559 F.3d 246, 249 (4th Cir. 2009) (setting forth standard of review). We therefore deny the petition for review for the reasons stated by the Board. See In re: Weldetensaye (B.I.A. Aug. 16, 2010). 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 2
