Petitioner
v.
ERIC H. HOLDER, JR., U.S. ATTORNEY GENERAL,
Respondent
Petition for Review of an Order of the
Board of Immigration Appeals
BIA No. A077 922 121
Before JOLLY, GARZA and STEWART, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Chinese citizen Chi-Chi Chang petitions for review of the order of the
Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) denying his motion to reopen his removal
proceedings. Chang filed his motion to reopen more than 90 days after the BIA’s
final order in the removal proceeding. He argues that his motion was timely
because it was based on changed country conditions in China, i.e., his own recent
conversion to Christianity and the disadvantageous position in which his
religious activities placed him with the Chinese government.
*
Pursuant to 5TH CIR . R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR .
R. 47.5.4.

No. 10-60564
We review the BIA’s denial of a motion to reopen under a deferential abuse
of discretion standard. Manzano-Garcia v. Gonzales, 413 F.3d 462, 469 (5th Cir.
2005). Changed personal circumstances do not constitute changed country
circumstances for purposes of 8 C.F.R. 1003.2(c)(2) and (c)(3)(ii). In re C-W-L,
24 I. & N. Dec. 346, 350 (BIA 2007). The BIA’s denial of Chang’s motion to
reopen was not an abuse of discretion. See Manzano-Garcia, 413 F.3d at 469.
PETITION DENIED.
