PER CURIAM:
Jose Armando Sanchez, his wife, Amanda Maribel Andino
Sevilla, and their minor son, J.A.S.A., * natives and citizens of
Honduras, petition for review of an order of the Board of
Immigration Appeals (Board) dismissing their appeal from the
immigration judge’s denial of Sanchez’s requests for asylum,
withholding of removal, and protection under the Convention
Against Torture. We have thoroughly reviewed the record,
including the transcript of Sanchez’s merits hearing and all
supporting evidence. We conclude that the record evidence does
not compel a ruling contrary to any of the administrative
factual findings, see 8 U.S.C. § 1252(b)(4)(B) (2012), and that
substantial evidence supports the Board’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. In re Sanchez (B.I.A. Jan. 14,
2015). 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
*Sanchez is the primary applicant for asylum and the claims
of his wife and son are derivative of his application. See 8
U.S.C. § 1158(b)(3) (2012); 8 C.F.R. § 1208.21(a) (2015).
