PER CURIAM:
Atul Sharma, a native and citizen of India, petitions for
review of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals, denying
his motion to reconsider. We deny the petition for review.
A motion to reconsider must specify the errors of law or
fact in the Board’s prior decision. See 8 U.S.C.
§ 1229a(c)(6)(C) (2012); 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(b) (2015). We review
the denial of a motion to reconsider for abuse of discretion and
will reverse the Board’s decision only if it is arbitrary,
irrational, or contrary to law. Narine v. Holder, 559 F.3d 246,
249 (4th Cir. 2009).
We conclude that the Board did not abuse its discretion in
finding Sharma did not show there was an error of law or fact in
the prior decision and denying the motion to reconsider.
Accordingly, we deny the petition for review. 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
