BIA’s denial of a motion to reopen. Najmabadi v. Holder, 597 F.3d 983, 986 (9th
Cir. 2010). We deny the petition for review.
The BIA did not abuse its discretion in denying Kandou’s untimely motion
to reopen because she did not establish changed circumstances in Indonesia to
qualify for the regulatory exception to the time limit. See 8 C.F.R.
§ 1003.2(c)(3)(ii); Najmabadi, 597 F.3d at 988-89 (petitioner’s evidence was not
“qualitatively different” because it described conditions similar to those in
evidence at her prior proceedings). In light of this conclusion, we do not reach
Kandou’s arguments regarding prima facie eligibility for relief.
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
