    v.                                             MEMORANDUM*
    JEFFERSON B. SESSIONS III, Attorney
    General,
    Respondent.
    On Petition for Review of an Order of the
    Board of Immigration Appeals
    Submitted February 13, 2018**
    Before:      LEAVY, FERNANDEZ, and MURGUIA, Circuit Judges.
    Osfredi Vidal Ordonez Velasquez, a native and citizen of Guatemala,
    petitions pro se for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order
    denying his second motion to reopen. Our jurisdiction is governed by 8 U.S.C.
    *
    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).
    § 1252. We review for abuse of discretion the denial of a motion to reopen.
    Avagyan v. Holder, 
    646 F.3d 672
    , 674 (9th Cir. 2011). We deny in part and dismiss
    in part the petition for review.
    The BIA did not abuse its discretion in denying Ordonez Velasquez’s second
    motion to reopen as untimely and number-barred where he filed it over 12 years
    after his order of removal became final, see 8 U.S.C. § 1229a(c)(7)(A), (C)(1); 8
    C.F.R. § 1003.2(c)(2), and he has not established that any statutory or regulatory
    exception applies. See 8 U.S.C. § 1229a(c)(7)(C), 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(c)(2)-(3).
    Ordonez Velasquez cites no authority to support his contention that his
    removal from the United States would violate the constitutional rights of his
    children. See De Mercado v. Mukasey, 
    566 F.3d 810
    , 816 n. 5 (9th Cir. 2009)
    (denial of an application for cancellation of removal does not implicate
    constitutional rights concerning family unity or child rearing).
    The record does not support Ordonez Velasquez’s contention that the BIA
    failed to state its reasoning or show proper consideration for his contentions. See
    Najmabadi v. Holder, 
    597 F.3d 983
    , 990-91 (9th Cir. 2010).
    To the extent Ordonez Velasquez challenges the BIA’s 2003 order summarily
    dismissing his appeal from an immigration judge’s denial of asylum and related relief,
    we lack jurisdiction to consider those contentions because this petition is not timely as
    to that order. See 8 U.S.C. § 1252(b)(1) (“The petition for review must be filed not
    2                                     16-71213
    later than 30 days after the date of the final order of removal.”). Therefore, we do not
    reach Ordonez Velasquez’s contentions regarding eligibility for cancellation of
    removal or suspension of deportation. See Simeonov v. Ashcroft, 
    371 F.3d 532
    , 538
    (9th Cir. 2004).
    To the extent Ordonez Velasquez contends that he may have been the victim
    of ineffective assistance of counsel, we lack jurisdiction to consider this
    unexhausted contention. See Barron v. Ashcroft, 
    358 F.3d 674
    , 678 (9th Cir. 2004).
    To the extent Ordonez Velasquez contends that the BIA should have
    exercised its sua sponte authority to reopen his case, we lack jurisdiction to
    consider this contention absent a claim of legal or constitutional error. See Bonilla
    v. Lynch, 
    840 F.3d 575
    , 588 (9th Cir. 2016).
    We also lack jurisdiction to consider Ordonez Velasquez’s request for
    prosecutorial discretion. See Vilchiz-Soto v. Holder, 
    688 F.3d 642
    , 644 (9th Cir.
    2012) (order).
    We do not consider the extra-record documentation submitted with Ordonez
    Velasquez’s opening brief. See 8 U.S.C. § 1252(b)(4)(A) (judicial review is limited to
    the administrative record); Dent v. Holder, 
    627 F.3d 365
    , 371 (9th Cir. 2010) (stating
    standard of review for out-of-record evidence).
    PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED in part, DISMISSED in part.
