for abuse of discretion the denial of a motion to reopen, Singh v. Gonzales, 491
F.3d 1090, 1095 (9th Cir. 2007), and we deny the petition for review.
The BIA acted within its discretion in denying Duran-Ramirez’s motion to
reopen as untimely because it was not filed within 90 days of the BIA’s final
decision on his underlying appeal, see 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(c)(2), and Duran-Ramirez
failed to establish that he acted with the due diligence required for equitable
tolling, see Singh, 491 F.3d at 1096-97.
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
