Immigration Litigation, UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE,
Washington, D.C., for Respondent.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Shi Wei Guo, a native and citizen of the People’s
Republic of China, petitions for review of an order of the Board
of Immigration Appeals (Board) dismissing his appeal of the
Immigration Judge’s decision denying his request for asylum. * We
have thoroughly reviewed the record, including the relevant
exhibits and the transcript of Guo’s merits hearing. We
conclude that the record evidence does not compel a ruling
contrary to that of the agency, see 8 U.S.C. § 1252(b)(4)(B)
(2012), and that substantial evidence supports the agency’s
decision. See INS v. Elias-Zacarias, 502 U.S. 478, 481 (1992).
Accordingly, we deny the petition for review for the reasons
stated by the Board. See In re: Guo (B.I.A. Dec. 18, 2013). We
dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal
contentions are adequately presented in the materials before
this court and argument would not aid the decisional process.
PETITION DENIED
*
On appeal, Guo does not challenge the agency’s denial of
withholding of removal or protection under the Convention
Against Torture.
