MOLLY C. DWYER, CLERK
U.S. COURT OF APPEALS
FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT
MIGUEL ANGEL QUIJOSA, No. 15-72816
Petitioner, Agency No. A205-065-550
v.
MEMORANDUM*
JEFFERSON B. SESSIONS III, Attorney
General,
Respondent.
On Petition for Review of an Order of the
Board of Immigration Appeals
Submitted August 9, 2017**
Before: SCHROEDER, TASHIMA, and M. SMITH, Circuit Judges.
Miguel Angel Quijosa, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions pro se for
review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order denying his motion to
reconsider. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review for abuse of
discretion the BIA’s denial of a motion to reconsider, Cano-Merida v. INS, 311
*
This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent
except as provided by Ninth Circuit Rule 36-3.
**
The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision
without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2).
F.3d 960, 964 (9th Cir. 2002), and we deny the petition for review.
The BIA did not abuse its discretion in denying the motion to reconsider as
untimely where Quijosa’s filed the motion over seven months after the filing
deadline. See 8 U.S.C. § 1229a(c)(6)(B) (setting a 30 day deadline for motions to
reconsider).
We do not consider Quijosa’s contentions relating to the agency’s
underlying denial of cancellation of removal. We previously addressed the
agency’s denial of relief in Quijosa v. Holder, No. 13-73669 (9th Cir. Feb. 25,
2014) (Order).
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
