PER CURIAM:
Hugo Rolando Castillo, a native and citizen of Guatemala, petitions for review of
an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals (Board) granting reconsideration,
reinstating his appeal from the Immigration Judge’s denial of his requests for relief from
removal and dismissing his appeal after consideration of his appellate brief. We have
thoroughly reviewed the record and Castillo’s claims and conclude that the record
evidence does not compel a ruling contrary to any of the agency’s factual findings, see 8
U.S.C. § 1252(b)(4)(B) (2012), and that substantial evidence supports the Board’s
decision, INS v. Elias-Zacarias, 502 U.S. 478, 481 (1992). Accordingly, we deny the
petition for review for the reasons stated by the Board. See In re Castillo (B.I.A. Apr. 24,
2018). 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
