On Petition for Review of an Order of the Board of Immigration Appeals Submitted February 15, 2011 ** Before: CANBY, FERNANDEZ, and M. SMITH, Circuit Judges.

R. 36-3. ** The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2). review for abuse of discretion the denial of a motion to reopen, Iturribarria v. INS, 321 F.3d 889, 894 (9th Cir. 2003), and we deny the petition for review. The BIA acted within its discretion in denying as untimely Lopez Gomez’s motion to reopen because it was filed more than 90 days after the BIA’s final removal order, see 8 U.S.C. § 1229a(c)(7)(C)(i), and she has not demonstrated that she qualifies for any exception to the 90-day time limit, see 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(c)(2). Lopez Gomez’s remaining contentions are unavailing. PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED. 2 08-74417
