PER CURIAM:
Fasil Atle Desta, a native and citizen of Ethiopia,
petitions for review of an order of the Board of Immigration
Appeals (“Board”) denying his motion to reconsider a prior order of
the Board denying a motion to reopen removal proceedings. We have
reviewed the administrative record and find no abuse of discretion
in the Board’s order. See 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(a) (2007) (standard of
review); Jean v. Gonzales, 435 F.3d 475, 481, 482-83 (4th Cir.
2006) (same). We therefore deny the petition for review for the
reasons stated by the Board. See In re: Desta, No. A97-204-006
(B.I.A. May 18, 2007). We dispense with oral argument because the
facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the
materials before the court and argument would not aid the
decisional process.
PETITION DENIED
