    U.S. COURT OF APPEALS
    FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT
    ALFONSO REYES-CAMACHO,                          No.    14-72393

    v.
    MEMORANDUM*
    LORETTA E. LYNCH, Attorney General,
    Respondent.
    On Petition for Review of an Order of the
    Board of Immigration Appeals
    Submitted November 16, 2016**
    Before:       LEAVY, BERZON, and MURGIA, Circuit Judges.
    Alfonso Reyes-Camacho, a native and citizen of Mexico, petitions pro se for
    review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order dismissing his appeal
    from an immigration judge’s decision denying his application for asylum,
    withholding of removal, and protection under the Convention Against Torture
    *
    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).
    (“CAT”). We review for substantial evidence the agency’s factual findings.
    Silaya v. Mukasey, 
    524 F.3d 1066
    , 1070 (9th Cir. 2008). We deny the petition for
    review.
    The record does not compel the conclusion that Reyes-Camacho established
    extraordinary circumstances to excuse his untimely-filed asylum application. See
    
    8 C.F.R. § 1208.4
    (a)(5). Thus, we deny the petition for review as to Reyes-
    Camacho’s asylum claim.
    Substantial evidence supports the BIA’s determination that Reyes-Camacho
    failed to establish that it is more likely than not that he would be persecuted if he
    returns to Mexico. See Nagoulko v. INS, 
    333 F.3d 1016
    , 1018 (9th Cir. 2003)
    (possibility of future persecution “too speculative”). Thus, we deny the petition for
    review as to Reyes-Camacho’s withholding of removal claim.
    Substantial evidence supports the BIA’s denial of CAT relief because
    Reyes-Camacho failed to show it is more likely than not that he would be tortured
    by or with the consent or acquiescence of the Mexican government. See Silaya,
    
    524 F.3d at 1073
    .
    Finally, we deny as unnecessary Reyes-Camacho’s renewed request for a
    stay of removal because the court previously granted a temporary stay of removal.
    2                                    14-72393
    The stay of removal will terminate upon issuance of the mandate.
    PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
